The Team: Ava Shamban, M.D., and Mojgan Moraveji
The Location: Santa Monica and Beverly Hills, CA |
avamd.com The Philosophy: At Dr. Shamban’s offices, the overriding outlook is simple: Accentuate the positive. Instead of zeroing in on a problem area or condition, patients are encouraged, with the help of the staff, to identify their “signature” feature (prominent cheekbones perhaps, or a confident jawline). From there, they work with Dr. Shamban, Moraveji and a handful of other aestheticians to eradicate any issues (wrinkles, acne, dull skin) that might distract from their star attribute.
The Signature Treatment: Moraveji, who has been with Dr. Shamban for over 20 years, is known for her Mojy Special, a two-hour treatment that includes a plant-based stem cell and DNA facial, an oxygen mask, microdermabrasion and Pellevé, a radio frequency technology that induces collagen contraction to producer tighter, firmer skin.
