Dr. Chaboki is an excellent surgeon. I had preservation rhinoplasty and a septoplasty with him one year ago and am very pleased with the natural results. My recovery time was quick and I can also breath so much better! I’m so glad I shopped around as much as I did and finally chose Dr. Chaboki!

Dr. Chaboki is very knowledgeable. He informed me that the nose will settle after a month, at which time i could get another round of filler if i needed to. This was good to know for the future, noting he didn’t want to overfill or make things look unnatural. I also had no bruising and nearly no swelling (a little noticeable to me but no one else) after my non-surgical nose job, so much so that I went to the club the same night. 10/10 recommend for anything nose related he knows his stuff and has great bedside manner.

My ear lobe was about to tear due to years of wearing poor quality earrings. I am so pleased with my ear lobe repair! I selected Dr. Chaboki because it was very easy to get the information I needed about the procedure and costs. I never felt rushed or pressured to do more. The procedure was really simple—in and out in under an hour with virtually no downtime. It’s healing really well and already looks better just a couple of weeks out. I would recommend this procedure with Dr. Chaboki to anyone.

After suffering from jaw pain and headaches for many years as a result of severe TMJ -- in addition to a widening in my jaw from the constant workout of those muscles -- my dentist suggested botox injections in the masseter muscles to calm the clenching in addition to some orthotic devices inside the mouth. For the injections, I went to Dr. Chaboki, who I found after researching doctors in the area and coming across a video of him teaching this technique to other doctors. I wanted to be sure whoever I went to for this had done it before and was comfortable with the procedure, and this gave me hope. Dr. Chaboki did not disappoint. He thoroughly explained to me how he would be doing the procedure and why, and my results were excellent. The pain in my face and jaw has gone away, and I can get the injections less frequently as time goes on. A nice side effect has been that the gradual widening in my jaw from the large muscles there has stopped as they've begun to atrophy, and I'm even seeing it reverse itself. All around, a very nice result. On top of that, he and his staff couldn't be more personable and helpful. I'd recommend them to anyone.

I have had bags under my eyes since 25 that are genetic and at 39 they made me look 50 so I worked with Dr. Chaboki to use fillers. He answered all my questions and we did it over a 3 month period so those I see daily didn't notice anything being done. Best to do on a Friday but I have done them on Wednesday and went to work after since I don't bruise. There is no pain and it's a simple process and I feel like 10 years was shaved off me.

I'd never had plastic or cosmetic surgery before but was referred to Dr Chaboki for a facial cyst removal. He was thorough and the procedure was painless despite the cysts location near my eye. I'd recommend him again for any facial procedure.

I highly recommend Dr. Houtan Chaboki. I broke my septum and two additional bones in my nose in August, 2016 due to a major fall. He was able to see me immediately. His compassion and expertise were outstanding. He reviewed my CT scan and scheduled me for outpatient surgery due to the extent of my injury. Dr. Chaboki recommendations pre and post surgery were thorough . His time frame for healing was right on target with my actual experience. Frankly, I never really liked my pre-injury nose and I had a long term deviated septum, it looks much better now and I can equally and fully breathe via both nostrils. My friends and family have all commented on the appearance of my repaired nose . Dr. Chaboki is a top notch doctor with the professionalism and expertise that you want in a physician. Caring, kind and outstanding in his field. "Thank you so much" Dr. Chaboki. You quickly changed this painful and upsetting experience around for me. I am very grateful, Joyce, Speech-Language Pathologist.

I would highly recommend Dr. Chaboki for any facial plastic surgery I suffered from Deviated Septum for many year; I was breathing from my mouth most of the time and I couldn’t breathe at all from my right side nose. In addition to that, my nose didn’t look normal, it was obviously broken and need to be fixed. I was afraid of doing the surgery. I heard a lot of terrifying stories about the pain especially the pain occurs when removing the gauze pads the day after the surgery. The other thing that I was afraid of was I didn’t want to change how I look and how my nose looks. I just wanted it to be straight and symmetric and this is really what I’ve got. One of my friend recommended Dr. Chaboki for me ( she did her Rhinoplasty for Deviated Septum with Dr. Chaboki and she looks awesome and natural) , I went for a consultation visit and he was very nice, professional, and answered all of my questions. After that I saw another friend who did the same surgery with Dr. Chaboki and the result was also great and unbelievable which encouraged me to and schedule the surgery with him. I went home after the surgery in about two or three hours and felt totally normal!! No pain, nothing at all, the only thing that bothered me is that I have to drink a lot of water using a plastic straw. Dr. Chaboki gave me his personal cell phone number incase if I had any problems or questions. I went the next morning to his office to remove gauze pads WHICH LASTS FOR TWO SECONDS WITH NO PAIN AT ALL!! For the rest of the week I felt normal with no pain at all, I even didn’t need to use the pain killer, I only had the feeling of having flu. After A week, Dr. Chaboki removed the cast and I looked to my new nose, I could breathe normally, my nose looks great. Nobody recognized that I had done anything different to my face: it was just Iike what I’ve always dreamed of. Thank you Dr. Chaboki, You are the best.

I had septo-rhinoplasty in October of 2014. It's been seven months. I was very nervous about the procedure, but after particularly bad allergies that fall (seemed like I couldn't breathe the entire month of September), I decided to have the procedure to fix my severely deviated septum. Dr. Chaboki was personable, knowledgeable, and very reassuring. Having the procedure done at the world class GWU hospital was also reassuring, as was the fact that all the staff who worked with me that day assured me that Dr. Chaboki is an excellent surgeon and that I was in very good hands. My experience with Dr. Chaboki was extremely positive and I was very happy with both the functional and aesthetic results. I would definitely recommend both the procedure and this surgeon to others! I felt no need for pain killers within two days and while my nose remained sensitive for quite a while, the recovery was not bad at all, particularly given that my nose was broken as part of the process. While my nose was mostly nice with just a small craggy bumpy part (where it had possibly been broken as a child?), having it straightened out completely eliminated lifelong self-consciousness about my nose. While I doubt my overall appearance changed much - I think the change wasn't very noticeable to most people, who after all aren't staring closely at my nose all that much,-yet I noticed it A LOT and the change has increased my self confidence quite a bit. All that, plus I can breathe so much more easily now. I didn't know breathing through your nose could be so effortless. So - glad I did it, glad I did it with Dr. Chaboki (particularly since he participates with my insurance, reducing the total cost a lot), and I'll go back to him if I ever get around to getting my ears pinned back!

I had a sports-related injury to my nose last August. I found Dr. Chaboki through my in-network Aetna system. He immediately noticed that in addition to my injury, which he promptly fixed, I had a deviated Septum. He referred me to an allergist to see the cause of the nasal inflammation as well as a CT scan and a sleep study. Armed with all of this information, he suggested I do a Septoplasty. It was a great experience. The staff, the hospital (GWU) and the doctor himself. He is knowledgeable, explains things in plain English and answers any questions you may have. The surgery was successful and I sleep better at night.
