Originally from Zahle, Lebanon, Dr Sassine has already the spirit of the artist, he’s painter and saxophone player. With critical and artistic eye, his hands tailor the beauty to each body, without breaching the natural look, because he believes that beauty starts to fade out with the artificial look. Cosmetic surgery is an art and the challenge of the surgeon-artist is to show the natural beauty of each body.
Dr Sassine is trained by internationally known plastic surgeons:
- Dr Alfredo Hoyos, creator of VASER 4D Sculpt techniques, which are a combination of advanced VASER liposelection, body contouring and dynamic sculpting, known internationally as “the Art of Body Sculpting”.
- Dr John M Shamoun, ranked sixth plastic surgeon in the United States, he’s the only plastic surgeon in California certified simultaneously by the American Board of Surgery, the American Board of Plastic Surgery and also the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.
- Dr Charles Mok and Dr Brett Kotlus, nationally known figures in the United States in cosmetic surgery and in laser endovenous ablation of varices, and other vein problems.
After fifteen years of academic medical studies, and staying continuously updated via the ECAMS and AACS, Dr Sassine is running now GALATEA clinics in Beirut. And he’s so proud being engaged with the most astonishing amazing outstanding beautiful lady in the world.
