Professional Background

Dr. Raman Mahabir is board certified by both the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada.

As a former chair of plastic surgery at Mayo Clinic in Arizona, he is committed to bringing each patient personal attention and individualized care. Patients from all over the country come to Dr. Mahabir for his unique skills and expertise. With a focus on complex breast, body, facial cosmetic and breast reconstructive surgery, Dr. Mahabir has built a reputation as a caring physician with outstanding outcomes.

Dr. Mahabir has a particular interest in both cosmetic and reconstructive breast surgery. His passion for helping breast cancer patients regain a sense of wholeness following mastectomy led him to spend time in Washington, D.C. where he was part of the team that successfully signed the “Breast Cancer Patient Education Act” into law in 2015. His passion for breast reconstruction further helped him perfect cosmetic breast procedures like breast augmentation, breast implant removal, breast lift, breast reduction and male breast reduction surgery.

Dr. Mahabir performs body contouring and has become one of the notable plastic surgeons in this popular surgical area. His vast experience in microsurgery and the breast reconstructive DIEP flap procedure has given him unique insight into mommy makeovers and tummy tuck surgery. He also performs brachioplasty (arm lift), thigh lifts, liposuction/liposculpture, and correction of excess skin following massive weight loss (body lift).

In addition to cosmetic surgery of the breast and body, Dr. Mahabir offers state-of-the-art techniques in both surgical and non-surgical facial rejuvenation and skin care. Dr. Mahabir’s reputation as a cosmetic facial surgeon in the Phoenix / Scottsdale area has been built on his ability to achieve natural results and a more refreshed look for his patients without being “overdone”. Whether it is a facelift, eye lift (blepharoplasty) or brow lift, Dr. Mahabir can help give you the youthful look you deserve.

His contributions to education, which twice earned him the teacher of the year award, and research endeavors (over 80 publications and hundreds of presentations nationally and internationally) lead to his position as chair of plastic surgery at Mayo Clinic in Arizona. While at Mayo Clinic, Dr. Mahabir was promoted to full professor and received numerous academic awards. In recognition of his accomplishments and excellence in plastic surgery, Dr. Mahabir was named The Plastic Surgery Foundation’s Visiting Professor in 2017-2018.

When Dr. Mahabir is not working, he enjoys cycling, cooking, reading and spending time in the great outdoors of Arizona with his dog. He is also committed to community service and helping cancer patients complete their recoveries and improve their lives.
