If you’re an artist at the top of your game, you know that quality is everything. Yayoi Kusama wouldn’t be caught dead scouring the bargain bin at Home Goods for some splashy abstracts, and Jen Atkin wouldn’t even dream of getting a trim at SuperCuts. So, it only makes sense that when an elite cosmetic dentist needs a little nip and tuck, he heads straight to the best of the best: Dr. Sam Rizk.

Dr. Rizk is an internationally renowned expert in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery based in New York. He has written extensively on the subject of facelifts, rhinoplasties, neck lifts, and other facial procedures and is frequently contacted by colleagues and worldwide media for his unique opinions. Named as one of New York City’s top plastic surgeons, Dr. Rizk is a Fellow of the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.

So, who is this patient that Dr. Rizk worked his magic on? None other than Larry Rosenthal, DDS, a well-known aesthetic dentist in New York City who’s famous for his work with celebrities. With so many surgeons to choose from, Larry had his pick of the litter, but he knew that Dr. Rizk was a clear choice. “Dr. Rizk is the best in his field,” says Larry. “He’s known for natural, incredibly precise results and recovery times that really can’t be beat. I was back to work in just 10 days.”

Believe it or not, Larry’s quick recovery time isn’t a typo. Even more impressive is the fact that the “after” photo below was taken just five weeks after his surgery.

“Larry is a well-known cosmetic dentist with a lot of energy, but his face looked tired,” says Dr. Rizk. “To help him restore that mind-body connection, I performed a deep plane facelift, an eye lift, brow lift, rhinoplasty, and laser resurfacing. The outcome is still very much Larry, just a younger, more rested version.”
