Using my sense of artistry, anatomical knowledge and surgical skills, I’m able to wind back the clock.
Philosophy
For highly qualified and experienced double board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. John Kang, choosing to perform a nonsurgical or minimally invasive treatment instead of facial surgery only occurs after extensive research and application has proven it to be a beneficial solution for patients. “I am very excited about the Silhouette InstaLift procedure and PDO threading,” says Dr. Kang. “Threading provides a great alternative for those who don’t desire a traditional facelift or for postsurgical patients who want additional improvement without going back under the knife.”
Whether performing facial surgery or employing the latest technology, he aims for the most natural-looking results to ensure that your choice to undergo cosmetic enhancement is undetectable. “I have mastered the art of providing local anesthetic for patients who need to be awake and can sit up and blink their eyes, which helps optimize surgical outcomes such as in ptosis repair or the creation of a double eyelid crease.”

What are your most requested procedures?
Upper and lower blepharoplasty,
rhinoplasty, fat transfer, facelift
surgeries, threadlifts, Ultherapy,
Thermage, Fraxel laser resurfacing,
Smartlipo laser-assisted liposuction,
and Botox Cosmetic and fillers -
How does your staff enhance your practice?
As a solo practicing physician, I take
great pride in taking care of every
patient who walks into my office. My
staff is an extension of me and they do
an amazing job at truly facilitating my
practice through great organization
and communication skills -
Why do you employ a less-is-more philosophy?
“Less is more” is a tenet all plastic
surgeons need to live by. At the end
of the day, plastic surgery is elective;
no one “has” to have it. The concept of
overdoing it doesn’t make any sense -
What new services are you excited to offer?
Our “Weekend Makeover” consists
of Thermage skin tightening for
nonsurgical lifting of the face,
hyaluronic acid fillers to restore
lost volume and Botox Cosmetic to
smooth out wrinkles in the brow and
forehead. Recently, we’ve expanded
our “Weekend Makeover” to include
Ultherapy and threadlifts. We decide
during our consultation which of
these nonsurgical options are best
to meet a patient’s unique aesthetic
needs and then combine them to
ensure we get the best possible result -
What are you best known for?
Natural-looking results without any
sign of having surgery. With my lower
eyelid surgery, I can make under-eye
bags disappear without any sign
of the patient undergoing surgery.
When I create an Asian double eyelid
crease, it can appear as if you were
born with a natural double crease.
Finally, I can create a natural-looking
nasal tip using a patient’s cartilage,
which makes the dorsal implant
more organic or natural to the face -
My motto
Do it right the first time
-
Three words that best describe me
Visual, compassionate,
perfectionist

Testimonials
Aniko Karadi
"Good Evening,
Hope the whole team had an excellent long weekend.
What I would like to accomplish:
-Define and tighten my jawline with Ultherapy
-Remove acne spots with Fraxel® Laser Resurfacing (I moved from Chicago to DC and am having an almost allergic reaction to the environment in addition to my acne).
-Fillers to lift my cheeks
Currently, I live and work in DC; and will need to coordinate a travel date with your clinic. Also, would it be possible for me to send current photos of myself and those of me when I was younger so that the team can recommend the best treatments to improve my skin?
Attentively,
-Aniko"
