I only have wonderful things to say about Dr. Bitar and his staff at The Bitar Institute. Last year I looked in the mirror and thought oh my gosh, I really need help. I had heard about Dr. Bitar from other people and went for a consultation. I did my research. I felt comfortable right away. In December 2023 I had a face and neck lift. I wanted him to do an upper and lower eyelift at the same time, but due to a couple of my health issues, Dr. Bitar said he would do the eyes separately. He is cautious and cares about his patients not only on the outside, but on the inside as well. I recently had my eye surgery and a brow lift 7 months after my face lift. I am very happy with the results. These are the eyes I always wanted. I'm sure he took 20 years off my face. I feel happy and confident. I know Dr. Bitar is one of the top cosmetic surgeons in the Washington DC - mid-Atlantic area, as well as internationally. I made the right choice. I highly recommend him 100%

I have been going to Crystal for quite some time now. She did my BBL laser treatment for redness. The results are amazing my skin looks glowy youthful and no red. She is hands down the best Aesthetician ever. She is so professional, kind, caring, patient and listens to whatever concerns you have. She is highly educated and gives all her time to you with what you want to accomplish. I highly recommend her. She is amazing. You will not be disappointed.

I went to Dr. Bitar for a tummy tuck. With my youngest child turning 15 I realized that my diet and exercise efforts over more than a decade would never...

I will never go anywhere else for any type of cosmetic procedure!! This is the second time using Dr Bitar and his team and I have never received anything short of great hospitality. This time around, I went in for Cool Sculpting sessions with Beysith and everything was wonderful!!!! In regard to the Cool Sculpting itself, I was fairly skeptical going in as to whether it would actually work or was more of a "current trend" but I was SHOCKED by the results I received, even after only the first session. Without any change to diet or exercise, I was able to see a huge difference between my before and after pictures. As for Beysith, she was absolutely incredible!! She was very warm and welcoming, went into great detail when speaking about the procedure to make me feel comfortable and she did everything she could to help me have the best results possible. In addition, she sat and talked with me for periods of time almost like a therapy session while getting a cosmetic procedure. I will hands-down be going back!!

I first read an article about Dr. Bitar years before my breast augmentation surgery and I remember thinking someday this is where I'm going to go for my surgery. In 2016 I have a breast augmentation surgery with Dr. Bitar through the under arm and behind the muscle. I've been super happy with my results and in October of 2023 I gave birth to my baby girl who I successfully breastfed for six months with no problems. Despite moving to Charleston in 2022 I still make the trip back to Virginia and Dr. Bitar when I need any cosmetic procedures. The staff is supportive and caring, you couldn't ask for a better experience than the Bitar Cosmetic Surgery Institute & Medspa.

I had rhinoplasty surgery one week ago and all I have to say is, if you're looking for a warm, caring, friendly, and highly skilled surgeon- look no further. Dr. Bitar not only achieved a beautiful result but made me feel cared about, and well cared for, throughout the entire recovery process. I had an unusually difficult recovery from surgery (I had a sensitivity to anesthesia that left me vomiting for the entire day following surgery, got some sort of food poisoning, and generally felt sicker than I have in my entire life). Due to this, I had to see Dr. Bitar two additional times between my surgery and one week follow up visit. Every time I came into the office (or had my partner call Dr. Bitar with concerns about my recovery) I was met with warmth, compassion, and helpful adjustments to ease my recovery. Dr. Bitar never once made me feel like a burdensome or "difficult" patient, despite seeing me four times in one week following surgery. Additionally, the entire office staff were friendly and accommodating from start to finish. This was especially exemplified by Trish, who is the nurse that assisted Dr. Bitar throughout the surgery/recovery process. Trish was truly the embodiment of warmth and kindness, she literally held my hand through having my splints removed and her calming presence helped to put me at ease when I was in an extensive amount of pain and discomfort. Also noteworthy, both Dr. Bitar and Trish were very welcoming to my partner and made her feel equally as comfortable and accepted as she was by my side during my surgery and subsequent visits to the office (although this might not apply to everyone, it is something to consider if you're LGBTQ and having any sort of medical procedure done, you want an affirming/welcoming provider). Lastly, what everyone actually cares to hear about- the result. I am only one week out of surgery and my results are already life changing. Rhinoplasty takes an extensive amount of time to heal and for the result to fully reveal itself, so while I am still experiencing considerable swelling, my nose is already looking like EXACTLY what I asked Dr. Bitar for. I'm including a before photo and several after photos so you can see the result for yourself, but my primary concerns about my nose were 1) the bump on my nose from my profile view, 2) the bulbous/droopy tip, and 3) how flared my nostrils were. Now, the bump is gone, my tip (though still very swollen, of course) is more refined and my nostrils were trimmed and are now in better harmony with my nose and entire face. Overall, I could not be happier with my experience and result of this procedure! I did extensive research, looked into other surgeons, booked other consultations and I can say with full confidence that I made the right decision here. If you're looking for a highly skilled/specialized rhinoplasty surgeon and want to feel cared for throughout the process, Dr. Bitar is the only choice. ***4 MONTH UPDATE*** I am adding two additional photos to show the progress at this point. I am just a few days shy of 4 months post-op and I could not be happier with my results. I'm including one side profile picture without makeup, and another front facing with a full face of makeup. My nose looks exactly as I wanted it to my breathing is slowly improving and the swelling is significantly reduced. That being said, at 4 months post-op it is normal to still have some swelling, and I do. Mostly in the tip area, and I especially notice the swelling if I am sick, doing intense exercise, or haven't slept well the night before. I share this because this is all normal and I think its useful to have realistic expectations when you're preparing for this type of procedure. Overall, I feel great, I LOVE the look of my nose, and feel infinitely more confident than I did prior to surgery (as a reminder, I originally had a dorsal hump that was very prominent from my side profile view, now I have a perfect sloped side profile)

Dr. Bitar's reception staff is rude, unhelpful, pushy, and arrogant. Not the environment conducive for medical procedures or helpful to healing. I first...

I can't even begin to describe how wonderful this place is. The staff is all super friendly. Dr. Bitar is such an expert in his field and it shows! I come...
