The Art and Science of Aesthetic Medicine: Dr. Farhan Qureshi's Journey

Dr. Farhan Qureshi (Dr. Q) isn't your typical aesthetic doctor. Between military reserve missions in Peru, managing ICU shifts at the hospital, and running his award-winning med spa, he embodies a rare blend of service-oriented medicine and cutting-edge beauty expertise.

"Most of my unit is involved in aesthetics," Dr. Qureshi reveals when discussing his unusual career combination. Having commissioned after medical school in 2012, he maintains his military connections while simultaneously building Noor Esthetic and Wellness Center—which he remarkably launched while deployed overseas. His journey into aesthetics came after a back injury derailed his initial plastic surgery ambitions, though he considers this redirection fortunate: "Even if I'm 80 years old, I could potentially keep doing this job."

What truly distinguishes Noor Esthetic is its commitment to serving diverse clientele. Specializing in treatments safe for darker skin tones (Fitzpatrick 4-6), Dr. Qureshi has invested in advanced laser technology specifically calibrated for clients from Latin America, South Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. Their revolutionary carbon peel "Hollywood facial" delivers dramatic skin resurfacing with zero downtime—a game-changer for those who previously faced week-long recoveries from comparable treatments.

Perhaps most refreshing is Dr. Qureshi's ethical stance in an industry often driven by profit. "We say no to 30% of our clients because we don't want to harm them," he states proudly, emphasizing that his practice values safety over sales. As social media filters create increasingly unrealistic beauty standards, he maintains that his business isn't just about aesthetics: "We're actually more in the confidence business." This philosophy, combined with his data-driven approach to adopting new treatments, has earned Noor Esthetic recognition as Northern Virginia's Best Med Spa of 2024.
