CO2 Treatment I'm here to hopefully dispel any anxiety over getting this skin resurfacing procedure done. I finally took the leap as I was concerned about signs of aging sneaking in. Skin laxity under and over the eyes and some fine lines here and there! Well I'm glad I did. I am 7 days out and I'm here to say it's not as bad as you think after watching all those YouTube videos. Dr Rostami, Alyssa and staff made me very comfortable during the entire process. Local numbing and an oral pain killer and we were ready to rock and roll. The entire process was fast and while I will say there were a few areas that were more uncomfortable than others, but it is tolerable!! I went home and followed all of the (provided) skin care routine and one week out it's looking pretty darn good. I'm not red like you see in those videos and most parts of my treated areas have gone from a sandpaper feel to nice and soft. I can't speak to the results as it is too soon but I can speak to the fear of getting it done. I cannot wait to see the results! And my research tells me the results will just keep getting better over time. I will update. read more

Took an hour for a 5 second appointment. I was there for my eye - because my optometrist had seen a discoloration. Thankfully, the discoloration - which I've had for decades - was considered to be nothing by Dr. Rostami. However, I didn't appreciate having to wait for an hour for this brief consult. Nor did I appreciate the doctor trying to upsell me by telling me I have rosacea because my skin on my nose and cheek is little red sometimes. I was told I owed nothing, but now am being charged for the visit. All in all, not a good experience. read more

Absolutely do NOT go to Dr. Rostami. I am writing this on behalf of a family member. Not only did she ignore all requests about what she wanted, her bedside manner was the worst. She completely botched her eyes and when she brought these concerns to her, the doctor ignored them and was just absolutely rude to her and impatient. This is the most degrading experience she has ever had in her entire life. I genuinely do not know how she has a medical license. She was not trustworthy from the beginning and now this family member has to live with these defects on my eye. Her eye is painful, droopy, and now she is having visual issues. Please save your time and money and DO NOT GO TO HER! read more

One of the worst and unprofessional Doctors I have ever seen! My painful and expensive surgery did not correct my eye lid problem! On top of that, she denied that her operation did not work. She was listening to music and singing along while doing my eyelid surgery! read more

Terrible experience. I went for a scar revision but was given a cathoplasty which wasn't what I needed or results I was paying her for! She's very dishonest and lack transparency by rushing the consultation and misguidance of what the procedure will be. She more focused on money than being honest about what she can and cannot do for patients. Waste of $2300! read more

My experience with Dr Rostami has been great. My issue is her billing company she employs. Unfortunately, during the time period I went which was late 2011, they were having accounting issues, apparently. I was told that by someone who worked there. The accountant they had was horrible, and didn't charge people when they should have been charged. Case in point, I went in for my skin tag and mole removals around the Nov 2011 time frame, and I didn't get a bill for the procedure until Nov 2012. I paid for it as soon as I received the bill, so therefore, I think I am done. Nope, I just recently (Dec 2012) started getting the "Complete Comprehensive Exam" fee of $279.96, of which $183.75 is still due for Aug 2011!!!! I don't mind paying what I owe, but this is RIDICULOUS and a complete waste of my time. I went in for another consult for some skin maintenance procedures that I wanted to have done in Nov 2012. But after this billing ordeal, I think I will pass! Again, Dr Rostami and her office are nice enough. But not nice enough for me to have to go through all these billing issues! 3/20/13 - an update. Not only did they not handle this properly. They had their law offices call me and say that they have been billing me since 2011. I have never received a bill since recently, and does it make sense that it would take 2 years to put someone into collections. I used to work in a bank and it doesn't take that long. I have lowered my rating to a 1 star for the horrible mismanagement of someone's bill and credit due to their own negligence. If you were a patient in 2012 or prior, you should beware of bills that never came. Had this happen to anyone else? read more

Where do I begin???? I contacted the office for a free consultation for under eye filler ( and any other needed procedures around my eyes). Although, I have had fillers at other offices, I was really looking forward to this consultation. I rearranged my schedule and earmarked a couple of thousand in my checking to get the procedure(s) done. Not to mention I drove for a hour to make the appointment. The front office and patient coordinator were pleasant. However, when dr Rostami came in she was extremely cold and short spent two minutes with me ( literally) and on the way out waved to her coordinator and said if I wanted to setup the filler she will do it... she was not at all interested in my concerns and I have never been treated that indifferent by a physician... . I actually would have done the procedure and whatever else was recommended that day... I was left stunned and thought perhaps i'm not the "type" of patient she is looking for or maybe they don't think I have money, or maybe because it was a free consultation...Not sure, but I just wouldn't recommend .... Even though some of her reviews weren't that great, I sought her out because she went to Howard ... One pro, $3 parking was validated :) lol The search continues !!! read more

Dr. Rostami did an upper an upper and lower blepharoplasty on my eyes in August 2020 and my results were amazing -- better than I dreamed possible. I also had her do my Botox and fillers last week. I appreciate her artistry and trust her competence. She has one of the best reputations as an ocular surgeon in the DC metro area. I researched extensively before selecting a cosmetic surgeon and I believe you get what you pay for! Prices were comparable to other highly rated cosmetic surgery practices in Tysons Corner area. I highly recommend Dr. Rostami. read more

In a field which requires both professional knowledge and an artistic vision, Dr. Rostami stands as the master of both in her specialty. She only performs procedures that manifestly and substantially improves the appearance of her patients, and in which, the undeniable benefits far outweigh the cost of undergoing an invasive procedure. This is one doctor, a true professional and artist, whom you can Trust. One can truly feel that he/she is in good hands. read more

If your going to see her to get your eyes check. Then shes okay. If your going to see her for ANYTHING else. Do not waste your time with her. My story below. ( I have NEVER gotten so frustrated, aggravated, everything in that category at a Dr. EVER.) Her staff is very nice. However this doctor is not what you expect. She will continue to make you return several times, just so they can get money out of you. The patient had visited her more then 4 times (for about 2 months), making them come back every 2 weeks because she couldn't see the problem with the patient. The patient saw what was physically wrong, and so did the nurse. Rostami, did not on the other hand. Therefore she made the patient come back every 2 weeks just waiting on for the obvious to appear. Which did not. Each visit was approximately 40 minutes total. 20 minutes checking in & wait, 15 minutes with the nurse doing the routine check and last but not least then Rostami. She comes in..looks at the patient, then says..i cant tell, ill prescribe you some meds, and come back in 2 weeks (saw her for not more then 2 minutes). Did this every appointment in till she told the patient to get a CTscan (this was at least a 2 month period before she decided this and she still had no idea) Then once got the results, Rostami referred us to a doctor 2 hours away (which took the whole day traveling including traffic) Had to pay upfront to the receptionist or the Dr wouldn't see us. (they did not take our insurance, so imagine how much that was. Also you would think the Dr would normally check if the referred Dr would take your insurance before they would tell you..but guess not). Rostami had prolonged the situation (while he is in pain this whole time) and the results became a very drastic event. The patient then had to search for another doctor in our insurance network, and that doctor ended up referring us back to Rostami saying how good she is (after she wasted at least 2 months because she couldn't figure out what it was, i laughed when that Dr said her name). The patient had to call several doctors, and get their referrals, and their referrals to finally get the right doctor. Finally found a doctor, and he instantly made moves to give the patient treatment (biopsy). The problem was so serious that after the biopsy,it was then sent to 3 different labs across to California. (this process took about 2 to 3 weeks before getting the results) but at this time the patient is not in as much pain (very little or not at all) as before the biopsy .The patient is STILL not fully 100% cured but very close to finishing and receiving treatment. The patient was getting small symptoms that they seemed as if it wasn't a big deal, back in march 2011. Then symptoms got worse around Sept THEN we went to see her. This malignant ended up being NOT what Rostami had said (she had said there is also no other type of malignant what so ever as for this one)...well she was wrong, there are actually several types that are similar to this malignant. Hopefully everything will be finished up by next month. A total of 7 different Doctors that we had came across through out this whole period. Starting back in Sept. Sadly. read more

Dr. Rostami was fabulous. She carefully told me about the procedure I wanted and then did it wonderfully. She injected half a mg in my nasolabial folds and was truly an expert. I was only 26 when I did it but it has lasted until I was 31. She has a wonderful bedside manner and truly cares about her patients! read more

Okay I bought a Groupon and who doesn't love Groupon? Sometimes though it seems like Groupon users get sub par treatment. Not always the case. I am a loyal returning user to many businessing that were Groupons in the beginning. My advice go somewhere else. It was the worst. Like other reviewer said the aesthetician seemed in a rush. I got there ad the office staff was literally yelling about a groupon user andnthengroupon situation in general. Ugh! I felt so awkward. It sucked. So I went to the room and there were the brightest lights ever on. The aesthetician asked me to just lay on top of the blankets with my shoes on. It was not relaxing. She used the machine for maybe 5 minutes at the most (being generous). Then I was left with a mask on in a cold bright room with loud hiphop style music for like 20+ minutes. I was sad and felt anxious. I just wanted out of there so bad. Not relaxing and a waste of money. read more

I had to get a medical eye lift and Dr. Naz was recommended. She was highly professional and made me feel so comfortable. I wasn't too sure about doing this... since it would be my 4th surgery in a year due to two retinal detachments and the side effect was droopy eyes. She was patient and kind and undetstood I wanted to not look any different. It's been 4 months and WOW!! Love the results! I also wanted to say, the front desk was so great about my flexible schedule and changes too! I highly recommend this place! read more

Ability to make the appt was fine and the Dr was on time and prompt but that was where the good news ended. I was there with my elderly mother. The Dr was rushed, spent more time facing her computer than talking to the patient, was extremely impatient when dealing with a patient who may need extra time for exam or instructions and ultimately ended up prescribing an anitbiotic that was $200 and not covered by insurance. When asked to help facilitate working with the insurance company to get another medication patient was told by the "office manager", "we don't have the time or the staff to help you with that, you will just need to pay out of pocket". They did not assist in finding an alternative medication and were extremely rude,disrespecful and unhelpful - very disappointing read more

I highly recommend Dr. Rostami. She's very knowledgeable and patient. She has put together an effective action plan for some recurring issues I have been having with my eyes. I never felt rushed, like I have with some other doctors. I also thought her office staff was very friendly and professional. read more

Unfortunately my experience with this doctor has been horrible. I counsulted the clinic for swelling under my right eye. She diagnosed that the swelling was due to fillers in the area after injection I had months prior at a different office. She suggested the use of Hyaluronidase, saying that it would dissolve the product and return to normal. I was a littl skeptical also because th doctor that had performed the filling prior, from a different country, insisted that it was not due to the product. I asked them to ensure me that that was the problem and they told me of how specialized she is and she knows what she is talking about. She also said that if it didn't turn out ok she will fix it. Well the result is that the swelling is now even worse and she refused to do any other intervention to try and fix it. She didn't even schedule a follow up to see possible changes. She also showed me, during the course of the 3 visits, that she was very forgetful, of what she had done to my eye and were she exatly performed the shot. Also she touched my eye saying what she was touching was filler, while the same stuff I could feel on the other eye, where I have no swelling, so it is probably just part of the eye anatomy. On top of all that after my complaints with the administrator, Abdul, he promised he would talk to her and get back to me, but it has been over a week and he never got back to me, after I went over again to talk to him one more time and sent an email. Over all very unprofessional and zero compassion. I will probably proceed the legal way, to at least get my money back. This was a terrible experience. To me she had no idea of what she was talking about, it does not look like she is that skilled or knowledgeable or professional. read more

I definitely recommend Dr. Rostami. Her team and her do a great job at making their patients feel welcome and comfortable. I was very satisfied with the way I was treated and will continue to go to Dr. Rostami. read more

Dr. Rostami just removed a cancerous leison off my eyelid. I go back tomorrow to have my stitches removed. She did a phenomenal job to remove the affected area while preserving the integrity of such a delicate area. I was referred to her by another eye who didn't feel comfortable and felt I needed a more skilled physician. read more

I have had very good experience with Dr. Rostami. Easy to book appointments, minimal wait to see doctor, and knowledgeable, helpful staff. Dr. Rostami cares about her patients and works hard to deliver the best results possible. I saw her for an eye condition as well as cosmetic improvements. I would recommend Dr. Rostami to friends and family. read more

I would highly recommend Dr. Rostami. I kind of think of her as a facial artist as well as an extremely talented surgeon. The changes she makes for you are subtle yet very impactful. Nothing weird or over the top; just enhancements to one's natural attributes that can greatly improve your appearance. Her new center in Tyson's Corner, The Sanctuary, really is a sanctuary. The staff is very pleasant and accommodating, and make you feel welcomed and at ease. I would not consider going anywhere else! read more

Hands down Dr. Rostami is the best in the area. She is extremely knowledgeable, accommodating, honest and dedicated. She doesn't beat around the bush or push things on you, she is genuine and compassionate to her patients. The staff are all professional, friendly and very helpful as well. I highly, highly recommend Dr. Rostami to anyone and everyone - especially if you are looking for any cosmetic procedures and eye surgeries! read more

Nice facility and staff. Everyone is VERY professional and friendly. And I have seen a lot of rudeness in doctors, and nurses in this area. Dr. Rostami is very professional, very knowledgeable and makes you feel at ease. I was able to ask all my questions and have them answered in a way I UNDERSTOOD. Coming from another state, she is only the 2nd Doctor I feel comfortable with with my health. If you are new from out of state and looking for a good eye doctor go to her. She's GOOD! You won't be disappointed! read more

I saw Dr. Rostami yesterday for an infected clogged tear duct. Her office fit me in as an emergency patient. I waited about 30 minutes, which is not bad considering I did not have an appointment. She listened to me. Gave me the prescriptions I needed to feel better and I have a follow up in about a week. Overall I was very pleased with the fact that they saw me on such short notice and that she helped me feel better. read more

I purchased a Groupon for a Skin Consultation and Microdermabrasion Treatment at Rostami Oculo-Facial Plastic Consultants. The building and office were very nice. I was greeted by the receptionist when I arrived and asked to fill out the usual paperwork. I was very hopeful that I would find a practice that I could have all my skin/facial needs taken care of, but I did not. I found the aesthetician, Nikki Parker, to be very cold and unfriendly. The treatment was very rushed, cold and unrelaxing and I did not receive the skin consultation. Nikki did answer questions I asked, but she offered nothing more to me other than just answering my questions. I was hoping to hear an expert's advice (consultation) on the condition of my skin with suggestions on how I could improve it through various treatments or products. She offered me nothing, other than suggesting I make an appointment with Dr. Rostami for a "consultation" which will cost $75.00. read more

Dr. Rostami is a wonderful, caring and compassionate doctor. She is motivated by pleasing her patients and making them feel good and look beautiful, within reason. Dr. Rostami has fantastic bed side manner and truely seems to have her patient's best interest at the forefront of her business. I have moved out of the area and continue to travel back to see Dr. Rostami as needs arise. read more

Saw her for a procedure on my eye, required minor surgery. It was a great experience from start to finish. The staff her in office and the staff in the surgical center downstairs was professional and courteous. I would highly recommend them. read more

Dr. Rostami and Dr. Nazemzadeh are artists! You will not be disappointed in their cosmetic or medical treatments.

Dr. Rostami was amazing and knows her stuff! She has a fantastic personality which makes her easy to talk with and trust. I highly recommend for all things cosmetic. Great location too, which helps. read more

I cannot say enough positive things about Dr.Rostami and the entire practice. I have just completed aging eyelid treatment. I have complete confidence in the advice and recommendations that I have gotten from the doctor and staff as I was always given options and alternatives to any treatment. My experience with the entire office has always been positive and enjoyable and my surgery results are fantastic. I could not recommend them more. read more

I went to Rostami for a microdermabrasion treatment after purchasing a session through Group On. When I scheduled my appointment, the staff seemed friendly so I was encouraged. I had even thought of buying a series of treatments if the initial treatment was good. However, when I went in for my appointment there was no one at the reception desk to greet me. I waited for 15 minutes hoping that someone would come out given I had a scheduled appointment. I tried to get someone's attention by saying "hello" several times as I could hear people in the other room talking. I finally had to open the door into the office myself to find someone who could assist me. I was on my lunch break so didn't have time to wait any longer for someone to come out. When I finally got the group's attention and said I had a 12:30 appointment, they looked puzzled and then went to their scheduling book to make sure there was an appointment scheduled. When they saw that I did in fact have an appointment, they did not extend an apology but handed me paperwork to fill out before leaving once again. I finished the paperwork but there was no one to hand the paperwork back to. I waited a few more minutes before someone re-appeared to lead me back to the treatment room. Once in the treatment room, the woman performing the treatment asked what I use on my skin. I asked a clarifying question to understand if she meant what cleanser, makeup, moisturizer, etc. To this question, she rudely responded back "I meant what I said. What do you use on your skin?" The session lasted literally 15 minutes and seemed rushed. It seemed like she was trying to rush me out so she could get back to talking to her colleagues. If they didn't want to take an appointment over lunch they shouldn't schedule one. I left feeling very unsatisfied and will never go back again. It's unfortunate given I was ready to commit to a series of services had this experience not occurred. read more
