Natural Look Institute
Natural Look Institute is a plastic surgery and cosmetic surgery clinic located in New York City. Natural Look Institute offers a wide range of cosmetic surgery procedures such as the mini-face lift, eyelid surgery, fat injection, rhinoplasty/nose job (nose surgery), as well as injectables & fillers.

Dr. Shahar founded Natural Look Institute on Park Avenue, in 1991. Natural Look Institute is accredited as office-based surgery (OBS). What I was most impressed with was Dr. Shahar's attention to detail, as his intended outcome was to keep me looking natural.
Services
Dr. Yoel Shahar - Cosmetic surgeon - has performed thousands of procedures at his private practices in both New York City and Israel for nearly 25 years. The latter specializes in facial rejuvenation, body contouring, fillers and injectables. He is a true artist. He will enhance your natural beauty, regain your youthful appearance and allow you to age ever so gracefully thanks to his gifted sense of aesthetics.
I can't say enough good things about my experience with Dr Shahar! This plastic surgeon and his assistant Gila were so helpful, informative and professional. I'm very happy with the results of my plastic surgery and wouldn't hesitate to recommend friends to this wonderful doctor. Thank you for being so considerate, patient and nice!
Nose job or rhinoplasty, is one of the most common procedures performed in New York City today. Rhinoplasty surgery not only reshapes the nose, but also has a significant effect on the balance of your facial features. Reshaping the nose includes removal of the dorsal hump, narrowing a wide tip, lifting a droopy nose, straightening a crooked nose, reducing the size, and more.
This innovative approach is a simple procedure which reshapes and corrects heaviness and sagging of the upper lid. Shahar has a very unique practice on Park Ave in New York City. Sometimes, plastic surgeons care more about performing the procedure and can be pushy with their recommendations, but Dr. Shahar is much more reasonable and will give an honest and professional opinion about what will work, what is safe, and how to get the best results.
Since there is not much tissue support in the eyelids, this is often the first area to show signs of aging. The eyes are also the first feature others see when they look at you. Aging eyes can make you appear tired, sad, or just plain old. Occasionally, the excess skin of the upper eyelid is often what contributes to the appearance of aging.

I got rhinoplasty done by Dr. Shahar in December of 2021. I've always been insecure about my features, particularly my nose. When I went in for a consultation, Dr. Shahar knew exactly what needed to be done for me to end up with a natural look. He's had decades of experience and knows tried and true techniques for achieving the most natural looking nose. I had never had surgery before so I was of course scared of being put under anesthesia. He held my hand as I was being put under which helped me calm down. Afterwards, while I was recovering, I had a ton of questions. He had given me his phone

I looked tired and saw more lines on my face and neck than I wanted to. Dr. Shahar is an artist! His work is impeccable. He is kind, patient and considerate. I had last minute jitters, but he explained the process and made me very comfortable with the decision to go forward. I love the changes! My face is smooth and my neck is tight!
I highly recommend Dr. Shahar!!

I did mini face lift with Dr. Shahar who was very helpful and professional. He explained the procedures in details and made me feel at ease. I am happy with my end result. My jowls, double chin are gone and my face looks fresh, younger, lifted and looks very natural. Dr. Shahar made sure to give his cell number so you can text or call him anytime should you have any questions. Ms. Gila at the front office was sweet and very helpful who kept in touch with me with my appointments, documentations & follow ups. Both of them are a wonderful person and I am glad I decided to go to Dr. Shahar. I will

Very welcoming office environment. Dr. Shahar spent ample amount of time with me during my consultation. He’s very pleasant and explained the procedures. On the day of surgery, I was extremely nervous, but Dr. Shahar eased my nerves that all would go well, and it did. Looking forward to see final results in a few months.

Referred to me by a friend who finally let me in on here secret to looking so young. I booked an appointment and walked outta there looking 10 years younger but still me. He is an artist. It's a very lo-key vibe office with nothing fancy to look at except your own face when he's done with you.

Dr. Shahar preformed a revision rhinoplasty procedure on me and I am extremely pleased with the results. My experience at Natural Look Institute was wonderful from the first consultation, to the last post operation check up. Dr. Shahar is knowledgeable, has wonderful bedside manner and offers realistic results. His secretary Gila is kind, warm and a pleasure to speak with. I would recommend Dr. Shahar’s services to anyone looking for a beautiful and well done plastic surgery procedure.

I was looking for a trusted and reputable doctor to repair my nose as it was uneven with the rest of face. I looked no further than Dr. Shahar! From his gentile demeanor to his vast experience and knowledge, he made me feel safe and secure that he would get the job done. I am almost six month post-op and so far, I am happy with my results. I highly recommend Dr. Shahar!

Nobody knows. no one. it's thrilling and I look a TON better without my double chin and lax marionettes. One person asked "did you lose weight?" and my scars are invisible. If you've been waiting a long time and hemmed and hawed about doing something, do it. He's affordable and a master and is the nicest surgeon I met with. The others barely looked in my eyes and I needed to feel real trust to have my face and necked altered with a knife! I made my decision very easily with Dr. Shahar and the results are.... invisible and seamless and no one knows why I look so much better now! Thank you, Dr. and

I had all of the following done at once: Upper eyelids, lower eyelids (the bags I had were so big, we could have gone on vacation without taking suitcases), neck lift, mini-face lift (jaw line) with minimal fat injections. It LITERALLY erased 15 years (my friends tell me that it erased more!) from my face. Dr Shahar is amazing and gifted. I am so thrilled that I chose him over three other doctors with whom I had consultations. PLEASE IGNORE the one bad review, there's a story behind it and Dr Shahar is NOT the problem. If you want to speak with me directly and see, please call their office

So I went to Dr Shahar after several of my friends (and my general physician) told me about him.
I've aged pretty well but in was starting to notice signs of aging that I was NOT happy about.... Lines around the mouth, a bit of a depression by my cheeks... What was there to do? When I went to dr Shahar he took time to look at photos of my face when I was younger and discuss what we would do so that I was comfortable with it.
I look amazing! It's like me, just a little bit better. No one notices, they just tell me how well I've aged. He's an absolute dream. Go to him.

Dr Shahar helped me so much! I had him do fat injections to conceal my terrible eye bags I had developed. It was a very easy going procedure. It didn't take long at all and wasn't painful for me at all. He helped make him look so much younger. Helped my confidence so much! Thank you Dr. Shahar for helping my face look younger and help me feel more beautiful! You are the best!

Before I got some work done I asked to see some of his work and I must say after looking at 2 "fat" books I was very impressed with the results I saw. Dr Shahr is very meticulous and skilled.
When I asked some tough questions, he was very thoughtful

Dr. Yoel Shahar ruined my life. He performed a rhinoplasty on me that destroyed my face. He gave me a very upturned piggish nose that looks ridiculous. In addition, my lower eyelids became permanently sunken in and darkened. Now, I always look tired and sad . He also damaged the oil glands in the skin covering my nose, as a result the skin on my nose is always dry and scaly.
My ability to breathe through my nose was greatly diminished, he, unbelievably, narrowed my airways.
When I asked him why he diminshed my ability to breathe, he simply responded that he's only a cosmetic surgeon
