Dr. Erfan Rahmani is an Iranian aesthetic physician based in Abu Dhabi, UAE, combining extensive hands-on experience in non-surgical aesthetic medicine with a strong background in medical research and evidence-based practice.
Trusted Healthcare in Abu Dhabi
His professional journey has developed across Iran and the United Arab Emirates, bringing together a strong foundation in medicine, several years of aesthetic practice, postgraduate aesthetic training, and continued involvement in medical research and academic publishing. Rather than following trends or applying the same treatment plan to every patient, Dr. Rahmani focuses on facial anatomy, proportions, tissue characteristics, ageing patterns, skin quality and individual expectations to create personalised treatment plans with an emphasis on natural-looking and balanced results.
Dr. Rahmani graduated from Tehran University of Medical Sciences (TUMS), one of Iran’s most prestigious and highly regarded medical universities and a leading institution for medical education, clinical training and scientific research in the country. Internationally recognised in medicine and health sciences, TUMS has a long-established academic and clinical heritage and is represented in major global university rankings.
This foundation in medicine, anatomy, clinical assessment and evidence-based practice has remained central to Dr. Rahmani’s subsequent work in aesthetic medicine.
Following his medical experience in Iran, Dr. Rahmani continued his professional career in the United Arab Emirates. His UAE experience includes approximately three years of aesthetic practice in Dubai, followed by one year of practice in Abu Dhabi.
Working in two of the UAE’s most internationally diverse cities has provided experience with a wide range of facial anatomies, skin types, ageing patterns and aesthetic preferences. He currently practises aesthetic medicine in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
Dr. Rahmani has pursued postgraduate professional development in aesthetic medicine, including Level 7 training in Clinical Aesthetic Injectable Therapies through the OTHM pathway in the UK. He is also a member of the American Academy of Aesthetic Medicine (AAAM) and continues to expand his knowledge through advanced training, scientific literature and ongoing professional education.
Principal clinical interests: Non-Surgical Facial Rejuvenation • Endolift • Facial Contouring • Botulinum Toxin • Dermal Fillers • Laser-Assisted Treatments • Skin Rejuvenation • Regenerative Aesthetics
Endolift represents one of Dr. Rahmani’s principal areas of clinical focus. Throughout his aesthetic practice, he has performed more than 2,000 Endolift procedures, developing substantial hands-on experience in patient selection, facial assessment, treatment planning and laser-assisted facial and neck rejuvenation.
Each case is individually assessed according to facial anatomy, the degree and distribution of skin laxity, subcutaneous tissue distribution, facial proportions, treatment area and the patient’s aesthetic objectives. Careful patient selection is essential; where Endolift is unlikely to provide an appropriate result, alternative treatment options or no treatment may be recommended.
Alongside his clinical career, Dr. Rahmani has an established background in medical research and academic publishing. His contributions include peer-reviewed scientific publications, systematic reviews, meta-analyses and academic textbooks spanning multiple areas of modern medicine.
His research and academic interests have included artificial intelligence in medicine, precision and personalised medicine, regenerative medicine, emergency medicine, diagnostic imaging and ultrasonography, ageing and global health.
Dr. Rahmani has contributed as an author and co-author to academic works addressing topics including Artificial Intelligence in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Diseases, Regenerative Medicine, Precision and Personalised Medicine, AI-Driven Strategies for Improving Patient Quality of Life, and Global Health Challenges. His scientific publications also include multiple systematic reviews and meta-analyses examining diagnostic accuracy and evidence-based clinical decision-making.
This academic background has helped shape an approach in which aesthetic medicine is viewed not simply as a collection of procedures, but as a medical discipline requiring anatomical knowledge, critical assessment, scientific evidence, technical precision and continuous learning.
No two faces are identical, and no two treatment plans should be identical. Dr. Rahmani approaches facial aesthetics by assessing the face as a whole rather than focusing exclusively on individual wrinkles, folds or isolated features.
Depending on the patient, assessment may consider facial proportions, symmetry, volume distribution, muscular activity, skin quality, tissue laxity, ageing patterns and the relationship between different facial structures. The objective is first to determine whether treatment is appropriate, then to identify which approach can provide the most balanced outcome while avoiding unnecessary intervention.
Safety. Precision. Natural-Looking Results.
Dr. Rahmani believes that successful aesthetic medicine should be recognisable by the quality of the result—not by the fact that a procedure has been performed. The objective is not to create a different face, but to enhance proportions, restore balance where appropriate and address individual concerns while preserving the characteristics that make each patient’s appearance unique.
Patient education and realistic expectations are fundamental to this approach. Patients are encouraged to understand the potential benefits, limitations and alternatives of treatment before making their decision. Where a requested procedure is unlikely to provide an appropriate benefit, recommending an alternative—or advising against treatment—can be just as important as performing the procedure itself.
Today, Dr. Erfan Rahmani practises aesthetic medicine in Abu Dhabi, bringing together his medical education, clinical experience in Iran and the UAE, postgraduate aesthetic training, extensive Endolift experience and academic research background to provide carefully considered, individualised aesthetic treatment with an emphasis on safety, facial harmony, precision and natural-looking results.
