Short Biography:

Dr. Raja Srour's skill and dedication have made him one of the leading practitioners of plastic surgery for thirty years of private practice. He received his medical degree and surgical training at the American University of Beirut. He has centers at Beverly Hills and Los Angeles.

Dr. Srour's natural instinct for aesthetics was a major factor in his decision to pursue specialized training in plastic surgery at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital in New York City. With his own private practice in Los Angeles, Dr. Srour has applied to his work his intense desire for harmony and perfection in the human body. His commitment to such aesthetic standards are apparent not only in his work as a surgeon, but also in his own canvas paintings which adorn the walls of his office. As an accomplished painter, Dr. Srour found that transition from working with canvas to working with the human body a natural one. Since then he has successfully performed face lifts, breast augmentation, breast implants, eyelid surgery, rhinoplasty, otoplasty, tummy tuck and liposuction.

An early proponent of collagen injections and lip implants, he continues to make his mark on cosmetic surgery by constantly seeking new techniques which will benefit his patients. In addition to his own private practice, Dr. Srour is also the Director of the Doheny Sunset Surgical Center, which is an accredited facility for outpatient surgery. Dr. Srour's work has recently been featured on television and radio in such shows as KABC News, Extra, Two On The Town, KTLA news, and AM-LA with Regis Philbin.
