Plastic surgery has often been associated with a negative connotation in the past, which is due to the extreme cases of plastic surgery where individuals have undergone drastic transformations that appear to be unnatural. Haute Beauty\u00a0recently had the opportunity to sit down with Haute Beauty expert Dr. Sam Rizk<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0who has a unique approach to his craft. Unlike others, Dr. Rizk is known for his natural approach to plastic surgery, which focuses on enhancing the body\u2019s beauty rather than radically altering it. In our conversation, we delved deeper into Dr. Rizk\u2019s philosophy on plastic surgery and learned more about the techniques he uses to achieve his client\u2019s desired results.<\/p>\n

What do you define as natural?<\/h3>\n

To me, natural is about staying true to yourself, both individually and culturally. From a surgical perspective, it\u2019s incredibly important that I take a patient\u2019s ethnicity into consideration. Some surgeons might say a nose job is a nose job, but to me, a rhinoplasty<\/strong><\/a> on a woman of African descent is an entirely different surgery than what I would perform on a man of Scandinavian descent. My goal is to give each patient the look they desire without losing the nuances that are unique to their culture and, ultimately, their identity.<\/p>\n

How have you mastered your natural approach?<\/h3>\n

I think it comes down to letting go of the idea of a one-size-fits-all approach to surgery and really starting from scratch with each patient. Bone structure is hugely important to me; it sets the plan into motion, so to speak, so I spend a lot of time studying and measuring, and mapping. And I\u2019m definitely a less-is-more guy. Subtle, well-planned changes can make a really, really big impact. In many ways, my work is more like sculpture than surgery.<\/p>\n
