MEET THE TEAM
As a highly sought specialist in facial plastic surgery, Dr. Behrooz A. Torkian is double board certified in Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, as well as Otolaryngology—head and neck surgery. Board certification in these respective fields is earned after many years of rigorous training.
As far as credentials are concerned, Dr. Torkian is quite literally as qualified as one can become in the field of facial plastic surgery. For this reason, he has cultivated a reputation for being among the best rhinoplasty and facial plastic surgeons in Beverly Hills has to offer.
Dr. Torkian’s approach to cosmetic surgery is all-embracing. In other words, when performing his signature Beverly Hills rhinoplasty, he doesn’t simply create a beautiful nose—he creates a beautiful nose that fits perfectly with the rest of the patient’s face, and has improved airway function. This three-pronged approach to rhinoplasty is just one example of how Dr. Torkian considers every aspect of each procedure delivered.
Dr. Torkian graduated with distinction from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), having earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Microbiology and Molecular Genetics. He went on to earn his Medical Doctorate at the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine. From there, he underwent specialty training in head and neck surgery at the University of California, Irvine. During this time, he earned several awards in recognition of his research during residency.
During his career, Dr. Torkian has served as Clinical Instructor at the University of California, Irvine in the Division of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. He continues in this prestigious division as the Assistant Clinical Professor, allowing him to teach fellows and residents aspiring in the field of facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. Additionally, he was the Attending Surgeon at the Veteran’s Affairs Medical Center as well as Kaiser Permanente in Orange County. In this position, he supervised and performed many types of nose surgery, including rhinoplasty and nasal reconstruction, as well as reconstruction of skin cancer defects.
To further develop his skills as a specialist, Dr. Torkian continued with a fellowship in Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at the University of California, Irvine among a small group of hand-selected doctors to participate in the prestigious Fellowship in Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery conducted by the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. It was during this fellowship that he developed a love for rhinoplasty, which would later become a keystone procedure at his practice in Beverly Hills, California.
