I have wonderful patients who come to see me because they simply want to look like a better version of themselves.

Philosophy

For board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Niki A. Christopoulos, being an exceptional surgeon is more than just having technical precision and skill. Managing patient expectations and direct communication is paramount to achieving optimal surgical and nonsurgical results. “I’m very honest with my patients, almost to a fault! I explain to them in detail what I can do and what to expect,” says the doctor. “I educate them about the ins and outs of their procedure, and most importantly, I listen to them.” Specializing in aesthetic surgery of the face, breast and body, Dr. Christopoulos helps her patients fine-tune their physiques when genetics, diet and exercise make it difficult to get the results they desire on their own.

A Minute With

Three words that best describe me

Honest, direct, kind
Why do you employ a less-is-more philosophy?

This is the key to looking younger
and better. I tell all of my patients
that I would rather have them come
in two or three times a year for a
sprinkle of this and a little touch of
that. This is the best way to look
natural, refreshed and more youthful
instead of “done,” or even worse,
“overdone”
What is the one thing your practice offers that is really unique?

We have three dermatologists
and a plastic surgeon all
working together. It truly
is a one-stop-shop for all
of your aesthetic needs
My dream innovation

A permanent solution
to eliminate cellulite
Career-defining procedure

Facial fat grafting
What surgical trends are you seeing at your practice?

Breasts are getting smaller
and there is more emphasis
on shape rather than size
What are you best known for?

Natural-looking results
What are your most requested procedures?

Any combination of Mommy
Makeover procedures, including a
variety of breast surgeries, liposuction
and tummy tucks. I also perform many
upper and lower blepharoplasties
and facial fat grafting procedures
How do you show patients you care post-treatment?

I give them a call the night of their
surgery to check on them, see how
they are doing and answer any
questions they may have
How do you manage patient expectations?

By having honest and in-depth
consultations. I educate patients
about their anatomy, discuss
their wishes and, explain what they
can expect and what is not realistic
