Dr. Sanaz Harirchian is so amazing! She is not only sweet and listens to what you want but she delivers! I was so nervous to do this procedure and I know I went to the right doctor. It’s been 4 months since my procedure and I couldn’t be happier. She did exactly what I wanted and gave me a natural look, everyone that has known me says it looks very natural as if I didn’t do a procedure in the first place.
