Dr. Sammy Sinno is a board-certified plastic surgeon in Chicago specializing in facelift and rhinoplasty surgery, with a national reputation for delivering natural, refined, and structurally precise results. Throughout his career and training, Dr. Sinno has been recognized with awards and honors that reflect his ongoing commitment to his craft, as well as his specialization in facial surgery.

Having performed over 1,000 rhinoplasties and 1,000 facelift and neck lift procedures, Dr. Sinno combines elite surgical training with high-volume experience—two of the most important factors in achieving consistently excellent outcomes. 

He completed his plastic surgery training at New York University, one of the most competitive and highly regarded programs in aesthetic surgery, where he trained under world leaders in facial plastic surgery. 

A Modern Leader in Deep Plane Facelift Surgery

Dr. Sinno specializes in advanced deep plane facelift techniques and deep neck surgery, focusing on restoring youthful facial structure, not simply tightening skin.

His facial rejuvenation approach emphasizes:

  • Natural jawline and neck definition
  • Long-lasting structural rejuvenation
  • Avoidance of an “overdone,” pulled, or windswept appearance

Each facelift is custom-designed based on facial anatomy and aging patterns, allowing for precise, individualized results that look refreshed—not surgical. When indicated, his deep neck approach can address structures that superficial tightening cannot fully correct, including platysma, deep neck muscles, submandibular glands, and superficial or deep fat.

Nationally Recognized Rhinoplasty Specialist

Dr. Sinno is widely sought out for primary and revision rhinoplasty, with expertise in both subtle refinement and complex nasal reconstruction. His approach combines facial aesthetics with long-term structural thinking.

His rhinoplasty philosophy:

  • Preserve natural identity while enhancing balance
  • Maintain long-term structural support
  • Customize technique to skin type, anatomy, and goals

Unlike one-size-fits-all approaches, Dr. Sinno tailors each procedure to achieve either dramatic transformation or subtle refinement, depending on the patient. Depending on a patient’s anatomy, he may use preservation techniques, structural grafting, septal cartilage, ear cartilage, or rib cartilage to create his signature, natural-looking results.

Experience With Complex and Revision Cases

Revision surgery exposes the difference between simply performing a procedure and reconstructing altered anatomy.
Scar tissue, missing support, previous over-resection, recurrent neck bands, or an unnatural prior result may require a
more sophisticated plan. Dr. Sinno’s practice includes complex revision rhinoplasty and secondary facial rejuvenation.

Training at NYU and an Engineering Foundation from MIT

Dr. Sinno’s background combines MIT engineering with a six-year integrated plastic surgery residency at NYU Langone Medical Center, where he served as Executive Chief Resident. That blend of three-dimensional analysis, precision, anatomy, and aesthetic training is particularly relevant to facelift and rhinoplasty surgery.

A Surgeon Who Teaches Surgeons

Dr. Sinno is not only a practicing surgeon, but also a national educator and author in facial plastic surgery.

He has:

  • Authored 50+ peer-reviewed publications
  • Contributed to and edited 20+ major surgical textbooks
  • Served as invited faculty at national and international meetings

His work helps define how facelift and rhinoplasty are performed by surgeons worldwide. As a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and The Aesthetic Society, Dr. Sinno continues to advance the field of plastic surgery.

Precision + Personalization

Patients consistently choose Dr. Sinno for his:

  • Meticulous attention to detail
  • Highly individualized surgical planning
  • Direct, hands-on care before and after surgery

Every procedure is approached with the same goal: to deliver results that look natural, balanced, and uniquely tailored to the individual.

  • Minimize bruising and swelling
