Signature Procedures

Facelift (Deep Plane)

  • A facelift that lifts the skin and the descended fat pads together as a single composite layer, repositioning the deeper tissues of the face rather than tightening skin alone.
  • Dr. Kamrava holds tension on the deep tissue rather than the skin surface, which avoids a stretched appearance, and anchors the lift in the deep tissue for a longer-lasting result. The same lift addresses nasolabial folds and sunken cheeks. He works in the plane next to the facial nerve branches, drawing on his head and neck residency training and his deep plane fellowship training under Dr. Neil Gordon.

Rhinoplasty

  • Surgery that reshapes the nose to improve its appearance, its breathing function, or both.
  • Dr. Kamrava treats every functional rhinoplasty as a cosmetic one as well, since rebuilding the nose changes its shape, and operates almost exclusively through the open approach for full structural visualization. He has treated droopy and bulbous tips, tension noses, crooked and previously broken noses, and complex nasal fractures.

Revision Rhinoplasty

  • Surgery that corrects the functional or cosmetic result of one or more prior nasal surgeries.
  • Dr. Kamrava accepts secondary and tertiary revisions, including noses with prior infection and septal perforation, prepares each case for full structural reconstruction with the patient’s own rib or ear cartilage, and receives referrals from surgeons who do not perform revision rhinoplasty.
  • He treats revision as a functional and cosmetic problem at once, correcting internal damage without sacrificing the outward result.

Brow Lift

  • Surgery that raises the position of the eyebrows and smooths the forehead to correct a heavy, tired, or angry appearance caused by brow descent.
  • Dr. Kamrava frequently performs the brow lift endoscopically through incisions in the hairline and prefers to pair it with a facelift to keep the upper and lower face in balance. He identifies when brow descent, not the eyelid, causes a tired look, and co-authored a 2026 review of the endo-coronal brow in Facial Plastic Surgery Clinics.

Blepharoplasty (Upper and Lower)

  • Eyelid surgery that removes excess skin and addresses puffiness of the upper and lower eyelids.
  • Before surgery, Dr. Kamrava checks for asymmetry and underlying ophthalmic conditions that could otherwise be missed. Dr. Kamrava removes skin while preserving muscle in the upper lids to protect eyelid function, and prefers fat transfer over fat transposition for under-eye contour. In the lower lids, he uses a transconjunctival approach when no skin removal is needed, which avoids lid retraction, and a subciliary (lash-line) incision when skin must be removed. He prefers to combine blepharoplasty with skin resurfacing to address fine wrinkles.

Fat Transfer

  • A procedure that harvests a patient’s own fat, refines it, and places it to restore volume or refine facial contours.
  • Dr. Kamrava uses fat transfer conservatively as an adjunct, to improve the jawline and chin projection, add lip fullness, and restore volume in the cheeks or under-eye area, rather than to volumize the whole face. He harvests, filters, and refines the fat to support its retention.

Research & Teaching

  • Co-authored “Understanding the Forehead Through the Endo-Coronal Forehead Lift” with Dr. Neil Gordon in Facial Plastic Surgery Clinics of North America (2026), a review of a forehead lift technique devised by Dr. Gordon.
  • Published peer-reviewed research in journals including Otology & Neurotology, Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, and Current Opinion in Otolaryngology and Head & Neck Surgery, spanning facial plastic surgery ergonomics, otology, and head and neck surgery.
  • Conducted bioengineering research on the design of custom 3D-printed middle ear prostheses during medical school, recognized with the Dr. Harold Lamport Prize for Biomedical Research.
  • Taught the undergraduate course The Bionic Human as adjunct faculty at the Temple University College of Engineering (2017 to 2018).
