Welcome to The Institute

The Institute of Aesthetic Medicine is comprised of two premier surgeons recognized around the world as true experts. While most plastic surgeons are generalists who perform a wide variety of aesthetic operations, at The Institute of Aesthetic Medicine, Dr. James Stuzin and Dr. Steven Fagien limit their cosmetic enhancement practices to specialize only in certain procedures. This concentrated focus allows them to create consistent, natural and beautiful results. Our surgeons have the skill, experience and artistry to help you achieve your cosmetic enhancement goals.

At The Institute of Aesthetic Medicine, our guiding philosophy is “Beauty Through Mastery”. We provide quality cosmetic enhancement results by surgeons recognized globally for their accomplishments in the field of Aesthetic Medicine.

Why Select The Institute of Aesthetic Medicine?

The hardest part of picking a plastic surgeon is finding a true expert. Anyone can claim to be an expert, but true mastery is rare. Experts in aesthetic medicine are leaders, pioneers and innovators. They are the surgeons who develop cutting-edge techniques, who craft beauty, and who are recognized by their peers for their accomplishments and technical mastery.

Experts are specialists who have spent their lives refining and perfecting their techniques. They are educators who share their knowledge with fellow physicians to push the field to new heights and improve the quality of care delivered to patients.

Above all, at The Institute of Aesthetic Medicine we put our patients first! We understand you deserve expert focus, the utmost quality care from our staff and surgeons, who are dedicated to helping you look and feel beautiful, with sublime results that appear natural and un-operated.
