About
Trained at Johns Hopkins and Harvard, Dr. Ariel Rad brings academic depth and artistic sensibility to every procedure he performs. As the founder and surgical director of SHERBER+RAD, he has elevated the standard of facial aesthetic surgery in Washington, D.C., through his commitment to meticulous technique and evidence-based care. Dr. Rad’s surgical focus includes deep-plane facelifts, endoscopic brow and midface rejuvenation, and microvascular reconstructive surgery for post-oncologic restoration — areas that require both technical brilliance and creative precision. His artistry extends beyond the operating room: he has designed a patient experience that mirrors his surgical philosophy — calm, private, and exacting in every detail. For Dr. Rad, success is measured not in transformation but in authenticity. He strives to achieve results that are elegant, timeless, and entirely believable — a reflection of the patient’s natural form, elevated by science and shaped by art. Through SHERBER+RAD, he continues to advance the ethics, innovation, and integrity of modern aesthetic medicine.
