Bardia Amirlak, M.D., FACS, is a triple board-certified plastic surgeon at UT Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, Texas, and an expert in cosmetic surgery of the face, body, and breasts. He also performs advanced gender affirmation face and breast surgery (top surgery). With his expertise in plastic surgery, he strives for results that not only look natural for his patients but also are safe and effective.
"We set the pace and protocols for plastic surgery across the globe. One of the major reasons is our extensive research into new plastic surgery techniques and technology," Dr. Amirlak says.
One of Dr. Amirlak's primary areas of research involves facial aging and shape. He has investigated the environmental factors of aging, various methods of fat grafting for the face and body, and 3D analysis of the face and nose, all to enhance the results of surgery. This background contributes significantly to his skill in tailoring aesthetic surgeries for patients.
When talking with patients about what they want to achieve, Dr. Amirlak evaluates whether nonsurgical or surgical cosmetic approaches will achieve the best results. He offers a full range of options for the eyes, face, and body – such as body contouring procedures, advanced HD 3D and 4D abdominal liposuction, ultrasound-assisted fat injection to the buttocks (modified Brazilian buttocks lift), breast augmentation, primary and complex rhinoplasty, and facial rejuvenation techniques, such as high superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) deep plane facelift, deep plane upper lip lift, endoscopic forehead and mid-cheek lift, neck lift, fat injections to the cheek and under the eyes, and upper and lower eyelid surgery.
In his Dallas office, he uses sophisticated imaging systems such as VECTRA 3D face and body cameras to help achieve the most accurate results.
In addition to cosmetic surgery of the breast, Dr. Amirlak translates his cosmetic experience to breast reconstruction to help restore a more natural appearance.
For breast reconstruction, Dr. Amirlak offers a comprehensive range of options to create new breasts that look natural. These include various types of implants, flaps, and fat injections. As part of his expanding cosmetic practice, he has developed a comprehensive treatment protocol, from facial cosmetic surgery and cosmetic breast surgery to gender affirmation facial surgery and gender affirmation breast surgery.
Because of his training in peripheral nerve surgery and his innovative endoscopic cosmetic surgical procedures, Dr. Amirlak has been internationally recognized for treating adult and pediatric patients with certain types of peripheral nerve and headache disorders, such as daily persistent headaches (NDPH), occipital neuralgia, and chronic migraines. He performs surgical procedures (including endoscopic trigger release and nerve decompression) and nonsurgical Botox® procedures for intractable headaches.
He uses his own modified endoscopic-assisted approach for the treatment of occipital migraines, as well as his innovative Anatomical Regional Targeted (ART) Botox® injection technique. This is now considered the most comprehensive and targeted Botox® injection available.
Dr. Amirlak is not only very passionate about achieving the most natural results for his cosmetic patients, but he also dedicates part of his time to charity and humanitarian mission trips.
Dr. Amirlak enjoys skiing and traveling to the Amazon for mission trips and is married to a cosmetic dentist. He and his wife welcomed a baby boy into their family in 2019.
