50
Celebrity plastic surgeon Alex Khadavi has died at the age of 50 after a battle with stage four liver cancer.
Khadavi's colleagues and friends announced his death on his Instagram page today with a tribute that read 'forever remembered'.
He ran a popular Los Angeles plastic surgery clinic that was frequented by stars.
Khadavi - who had more than 107,000 Instagram followers - worked at the Dermatology & Laser Medical Center, which has locations in the celebrity enclaves of Encino and Thousand Oaks.
The 50-year-old was originally from Tehran, moving to America as a child in 1979.

Khadavi's list of celebrity fans included the Kardashians, some of whom promoted his hand creams on QVC and social media.
While he was loved by some of Hollywood, he ran into trouble with others.
Real estate brothers Josh and Matt Altman from Million Dollar Listing accused Khadavi of aggressive antisemitism, claiming he told them he 'hated all Jews'.
The plastic surgeon also filed for bankruptcy last year after overshooting his load on a dream house.
'I dreamed too big,' he said at the time.
