Dr. Martin Stepanyan is a board-certified surgeon with over 16 years of academic excellence, extensive training, and over 23 years of successful private practice in Cosmetic & Reconstructive Surgery and Maxillofacial Surgery.

Choosing the right surgeon is key to achieving the best results from ethnic rhinoplasty. Dr. Martin Stepanyan stands out as a top choice for individuals seeking a surgeon who understands the delicate balance of ethnic features and can deliver beautiful, natural results. 

With over 28 years of experience in facial surgery, Dr. Stepanyan combines advanced surgical skills with a compassionate, patient-centered approach. 

His extensive training in both cosmetic and reconstructive facial surgery enables him to address aesthetic and functional concerns, delivering results that enhance each patient’s natural beauty. Furthermore, Dr. Stepanyan uses advanced three-dimensional imaging technology to provide patients with a clear visual representation of their expected outcomes before the procedure, helping to manage expectations and ensure satisfaction.

As a board-certified surgeon and a Fellow of prestigious professional organizations, Dr. Stepanyan operates in a state-of-the-art, AAAHC-accredited surgery center, prioritizing patient safety and comfort at all times.

His approach is supported by decades of additional training, experience, and professional achievement, including:

• More than 2,000 nasal surgeries have been performed throughout Los Angeles County, including complex revision cases for patients who travel from out of state seeking his expertise
• Board-certified since 2003, with recertification extending through 2033
• Fellow of the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery (FAACS)
• Fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS)

His professional experience extends well beyond private practice. Dr. Stepanyan graduated first in his class with a 4.0 GPA from the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine, and then completed a cosmetic and reconstructive surgery fellowship under T. William Evans, MD, FACS, at The Ohio State University. He has also:

• Co-authored research published in The American Journal of Cosmetic Surgery
• Served as Division Chief at Huntington Memorial Hospital (2005 to 2007) and Methodist Hospital of Southern California (2007 to 2009)
• Participated in craniofacial reconstructive missions in Ecuador, Armenia, and Russia

Patients consistently point to the consultation experience as one of the reasons they choose Dr. Stepanyan. Lianna M. called him “the only doctor who captured my attention with all the knowledge he had,” and Vicki D. contrasted him with other surgeons who “made me feel they were only out for the money and a quick job.” 

Every consultation is centered on understanding your anatomy, concerns, and goals before recommending a personalized treatment plan. Supported by trilingual staff fluent in English, Armenian, and Russian, the practice provides culturally informed care for Glendale’s diverse communities while creating results that look refined rather than obviously surgical. 

As patient Naeva O. shared, people “couldn’t even tell” she had work done, reflecting the natural-looking outcomes Dr. Stepanyan strives to achieve. That same personalized approach guides Dr. Stepanyan’s philosophy of enhancing rather than westernizing the nose.

Patients also benefit from an integrated surgical setting. Dr. Stepanyan performs procedures at his AAAHC-accredited Glendale surgical center, which includes three fully equipped operating rooms and an on-site 23-hour ambulatory recovery center.

This allows patients to undergo surgery and recover under the same experienced team, providing continuity of care from the operating room through the early stages of recovery.

Dr. Stepanyan’s Glendale practice welcomes patients from throughout Burbank, Pasadena, Beverly Hills, Studio City, and the greater Los Angeles area, with extensive experience treating diverse minority and immigrant communities in the region.
