Meet Dr. Sitapara

Jigar Sitapara, MD

Jigar Sitapara, MD believes the road to mastery requires tremendous dedication and specialization. This led him to go beyond his surgical board certification and fellowship training in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery in New York, to focus on becoming a specialist in deep plane facelifts, closed “scarless” rhinoplasty, and hair transplantation.

By focusing on these surgeries as well as their surgical and non-surgical counterparts, Dr. Jigar Sitapara has been able to consistently achieve natural and breathtaking results. Since joining Chevy Chase Facial Plastic Surgery, he has prided himself on customizing rejuvenation solutions for all skin types and ethnicities. By dedicating himself to learning how to enhance and balance the intricacies of each individual’s face, he has become an expert injector and an authority in the region on facial cosmetic surgery and hair restoration.

As one of only 46 surgeons selected to complete a fellowship in facial plastic surgery, Dr. Sitapara understands the value of advanced education. He continues to train future generations of head and neck surgeons as a faculty member at George Washington University and regularly presents his research on cutting edge cosmetic treatments across the United States. With training and academic achievements from the National Institutes of Health, the University of Pennsylvania, and one of the highest ranked head and neck surgery programs in the country (#3 US News Ranking), Dr. Sitapara has the unique ability to devise treatment plans that balance science and artistry. He firmly believes that by hyper-specializing in plastic surgery of the face and neck, he is able to achieve natural and customized results for each and every surgical and non-surgical patient.
