After completing his plastic surgery residency, Dr. Boris M. Ackerman was recruited by two highly regarded surgeons — one in Beverly Hills and another in Newport Beach. For a time, he split his efforts between the two offices. Ultimately, Newport Beach won his heart. The city’s coastal charm, casual lifestyle, and strong sense of community offered the perfect balance. Over the years, he also discovered a passion for boating, which became a favorite way to unwind after long days in the operating room.

Dr. Ackerman has since established a nationally recognized center of excellence in Facial Rejuvenation Surgery in Newport Beach, drawing patients from across the country. A published author and respected authority on the Deep Plane Facelift, he is frequently invited to share his expertise at both national and international medical conferences. His influence extends beyond his own practice as well: as Co-Director of the Aesthetic Surgery Fellowship, he trains and mentors other plastic surgeons in advanced facial rejuvenation techniques, ensuring the next generation of specialists continues to advance the field.

Beyond medicine, Dr. Ackerman and his wife are deeply involved in philanthropic work. They support organizations for children with special needs, as well as greyhound dog rescue initiatives. Their commitment was recognized when they were honored guests at the Friendship Circle’s annual charity event.

Looking ahead, Dr. Ackerman hopes to maintain the balance he has built between his career, meaningful leisure activities, and charitable contributions. He takes pride in helping elevate Orange County as a hub for excellence in plastic surgery education and is committed to furthering that legacy. For him, the future is about continuing to refine his craft while giving back to both his patients and community.
