Behrooz Torkian, MD

Dr. Torkian and his office staff are the best! I was nervous to try Botox for the first time but he was really patient with me, making sure to answer all my questions and make sure I was comfortable. He did an amazing job and I’m totally hooked! I also had him do a mole removal and he was so kind throughout the whole process, making sure to work around my schedule and answer all of my questions and concerns. His office staff are extremely nice and helpful and I rarely have to wait more than a few minutes. Really a wonderful experience every time I see him!

I came to Dr. Torkian for a filler of Restylane on my nose. I had a slight scoop on my nose that bothered me from a previous rhinoplasty and I didn’t think I needed a revision. I am so happy with my results my profile exactly how I wanted it. I’m really glad that I choose Dr. Torkian for my filler.

Dr. Torkian is the best surgeon ever. He did a rhinoplasty on my daughter and I and we both couldn’t be happier. My nose looks amazing but super natural. I couldn’t be happier with my the results and I would 100% recommend him to anyone I know. The entire staff were very nice and professional and made me feel very comfortable. Dr. Torkian is an expert, perfectionist, warmth, caring, honest and friendly. If you are looking for a face expert plastic surgeon then you found him.

I had consultations with 5 of the most renowned, pseudo celebrity doctors in Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, and even 1 in Glendale and I’m 100% sure and thankful I made the right decision going with Dr. Torkian.
This review is long overdue! I had my rhinoplasty revision 14 months ago and I couldn’t be happier. Dr. Torkian and his entire staff were and still are amazing, beyond amazing! I can’t thank you enough Dr. Torkian for your warmth, professionalism, your expert keen eye, being a perfectionist, and above all else, a great human being.

Dr. Torkian is amazing. No other way to put it. I had rhinoplasty with him last week and he has exceeded my expectations :) Though I am still swollen, I already see a MAJOR difference in my nose and I am so thrilled! It’s everything I ever wanted. Dr. T really listened to what I wanted to change with my nose and addressed any concerns I had. The staff is wonderful as well (everyone is very sweet and helpful). A special thank you to Kristine and Martha who were so helpful and caring after my surgery. I truly knew I was in great hands and they made the whole experience very enjoyable. Looking forward to my follow up appointments and to see how my nose will keep getting better and better as time goes on!!! Love it, love it, love it. Thank You Dr. Torkian, you made my dreams come true and I finally have a cute nose :)

That prior picture was just weeks after surgery and obviously still very swollen. It’s been over a year and I LOVE my nose. Plus, I can smell again! Actually too well sometimes! Haha. Thank you Dr. Torkian for being so great:)

I want to thank Dr. Torkian and his team from the bottom of my heart to taking such good care of me from the moment I walked in. I was very apprehensive because I had a previous rhinoplasty that did not go well many years ago and I dealt with it by pretending it never happened. Fortunately, I finally decided to deal with it. I can’t believe how much I love my new nose. Thank you for making me feel good about looking in the mirror and taking pictures. I’m forever grateful.

I wish I could give Dr. Torkian more than 5 stars! He is such an amazing surgeon and person. I always feel so welcome and cared about by him and his entire staff of amazing women. He gave me an incredible rhinoplasty and septoplasty revision after a poor job I had received 17 years ago. I love my nose now, I can breath, and it’s not even finished healing. I also recently got some fillers and the results are astonishing. I cannot recommend Dr. Torkian enough!!!

This review is long overdue as Dr T repaired my nose 2 years ago. I broke my nose… Ehhh around 6 times prior to surgery. I had it repaired once, then broke it again. Take it from me, it was a complete disaster. The bridge of my nose was collapsed, and I couldn’t breathe out of my nose at all. I was in surgery with Dr T for about 5 – 6 hours because he had to take the cartilage from my ear, to repair/​stabilize the bridge of my nose. He said he spent quite a bit of time pulling out small bone fragments from my previous breaks. It’s pretty amazing how good it looks given my injuries, and the amount of work performed. I can breathe well now, and I look completely normal. No deformity, symmetrical, and straight.
You really can’t be too careful when it comes to your face. You have to select a surgeon that has both ENT training and plastic training. Function and beauty are equally as important. I have worked as a nurse in the plastics industry for almost 10 years. I have worked with MANY surgeons, and I can tell you first hand, they are not producing the quality of work you will receive with Dr T.
When you are selecting a surgeon, make sure you ask how many rhino’s they are doing per year. Not all surgeons are created equal! Most plastic surgeons are doing breast, lipo, and tummy tucks. Very few are doing a large number of rhinos. No matter how «experienced» a surgeon is, or tells you he is, it’s likely Dr T has done more rhinos in a year than they have done in 20 years. Pictures speak the truth, and so do Unilocal reviews!
Do the surgery, you won’t regret it. This guy knows the nose!

Two years after rhinoplasty I can honestly say this is one of the BEST decisions I have ever made. Dr. Torkian did an amazing «job» (pun intended) (; He listens and he really cares. I’ll start off by saying some apprehensions that I had: He initially wanted to do more on my nose than I wanted but after I told him I didn’t care that my nostrils were a teeny bit uneven he agreed to leave them alone. He was also the only surgeon that I saw who wanted to do an open rhinoplasty (ie: the incision is on the outside between the two nostrils in the little flap of skin and the skin is literally lifted so that the nose is exposed) which made me quite nervous because recovery is a lot longer and he was the only surgeon that said this but in the end I chose him because I felt that he really listened, cared, and didn’t have an ego about what it should be like, he only made suggestions and ultimately did what I WANTED with my nose not what he thought it should look like. After surgery, only one person that I knew noticed that I got it done, everyone else just looked at me and thought I got a haircut or that my makeup was put on differently, and that to me was the biggest compliment and exactly what I wanted: to get rid of my dorsal hump and have a natural looking nose.
I would recommend him to anyone who really wants their nose done. With that said, this is a difficult procedure, while I had minimal bruising and swelling and all seemed to look relatively well and my initial recovery seemed quick, my nose felt dry for months after and I went through lots of emotional, psychological changes throughout the healing process and it took me awhile to adjust (STAY OFF THE INTERNET AFTER THIS PROCEDURE, seriously, repeat, I WILL STAY OFF THE INTERNET). I didn’t see the final result for a year, and only began to appreciate my nose after a few months. Throughout the process, Dr. Torkian was patient, understanding, and always took the time to see me even though he was already paid. The only part that bothers me now is now that my «hump» is gone my glasses sit closer to the nerves and so I cannot wear heavy glasses or I get a headache (this is by no means Torkian’s fault). For anyone who has truly hated their nose, look no further, you have found your doctor.

WOW!!! IM SO EXCITED TO WRITE THIS REVIEW!!! I got rhinoplasty (nose job) from Dr. Torkian on tue. July 21^st and now its Thus. July 30^th. Heres my step by step experience. Lets start with the consultation: He really spent a lot of time talking to me and answering every single question with full confidence and no hesitation, he showed me pictures of my future nose, and was so easy and comfortable to talk to. He is the nicest cosmetic surgeon Ive ever met. Ive been wanting my nose done since forever. I am 28 now. Prior to Dr. Torkian I had a few consultations with the so called best of the best, but for some reason I still felt unsure after the consultation and never ended booking a surgery date. My good friend went to Dr. Torkian a year before I did and he did such an amazing job that I had to know who she went to.
My biggest fear about getting rhinoplasty was looking different and not recognizing myself when I look in the mirror. Also, I was afraid if it looking too small and sloped which wouldn’t look good on my face. After careful research, I noticed that Dr. Torkian does NOT have a signature nose. He really customizes your nose to fit YOUR face. Thats very important to me. I wanted it to be natural yet still noticeable. So lets flash forward. I booked the surgery and in between waiting for the big day I called a few times panicking and asking a lot of questions and his staff was so nice to me a polite and so helpful. Something about him and his staff really puts you at ease.
Now the day of surgery. I was sooooo nervous since this was the first time I’ve ever done any type of surgery in my life! I have never been put under or done anything so crazy lol. I had a nice cozy room all to myself. The anesthesiologist and nurse had both talked to me prior to the surgery and answered my questions. Then Dr. Torkian came and made me feel so relaxed. When I was lying on the surgery bed he even massaged my head until I was out haha a.
After surgery, I woke up painless and feeling great. I went home with full energy and had zero pain whatsoever. The whole week with the cast on my nose, there was ZERO pain! It felt exactly like having a cold. Finally I got my cast off and I couldn’t be happier. Ofcourse its still very swollen and not exactly what its going to look liken the future but it already looks so great and so natural and I can tell my future nose is going to be everything I’ve ever wanted. Thank you so much Dr. Torkian and thank you for your amazing staff and nurse and anesthesiologist. You all are wonderful!!! (btw I have two friends who are already going to him after seeing my result)

Dr Torkian’s bedside manner is phenomenal and he is so soothing and smart. Best Doctor, everything worked out the exact way as he counseled. I recommend him 100%. I will be coming to him for a lifetime.

The first idea was i will wait for the wound to heal before I will write reviews, but i feel very appreciated this clinic. Staffs are very good service since consultation day and Doctor Torkian calmly explain the detail with three-​dimensional composite image. On surgery day, the staff are all very good care. They changed me the bandage every 15 minutes, serve the drink and food. Doctor and his team are very professional. After operation they have follow-​up appointment continuously. Although the wound is not healing But I feel confident with him and can’t wait to see my nose:)

So I signed up for Unilocal just so I could write a review about Dr. Torkian and his wonderful staff.
The entire office and surgical team are truly amazing! It’s great to be in a place where you feel like they do really care about the end results. To often we seem to have unrealistic expectations and/​or we are leary about having plastic surgery done at all because of some of the horror stories.
This doctor, in my opinion sincerely cares about the outcome. He’s not there to just take your money… do some alterations and move on to the next. He loves what he does and it shows!
Dr. Torkian is very down to earth, kind, pleasant, meticulous and a true «Master of The Canvas»…Us…His Patients.
I was bitten in the face by a dog 3 years ago and though I’ll carry some scars… he has done a remarkable job repairing the damage, not only to my face, but to my spirit. Every passing day I see more of the results.
If you are looking for a great physician and a genuine staff… YOU just found them. Now, I’m speaking from my own personal experience when I say, Dr. Torkian is gifted, yet not arrogant, confident and not conceded. There is a BIG difference.
I wish them ALL the best and thank you again and again!

I got my nose done with Dr. Torkian almost two weeks ago, and though my nose is still extremely swollen (and will be for another 6 weeks or so), I’m starting to see the amazing results. Dr. Torkian and his staff are so professional and Dr. Torkian’s personality is so refreshing. I went to a few other plastic surgeons before deciding on Dr. Torkian and found them to be pretty cocky and «salesy». If you’re looking for natural amazing results and a doctor who tells it like it is, you should go see Dr. Torkian. I’m definitely going to refer everyone I know who is looking for a good facial plastic surgeon to him.
The office staff is great too! I got a call almost every day after my surgery. One on the night of my surgery from Dr. Torkian himself, and lots of follow up from the office just to check on me. It’s a bummer I don’t have more noses on my face for him to work on because he’s a true artist.
Dr. Torkian changed my life, and if you’re thinking about rhinoplasty/​septoplasty, he’s your guy without a doubt.

Dr. Torkian and his staff are truly amazing! It was very difficult finding a plastic surgeon I could trust to perform a complicated rhinoplasty and septoplasty on my 16 year old.
Dr. Torkian is kind, professional, reassuring, and most importantly, he is an ARTIST! He completely transformed my daughters nose! Prior to surgery, not only was her nose crooked with a large bump, she was unable to breath. Now, one week after surgery… she can breathe… and BONUS, she looks like a million bucks! Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my kid!!!

Dr Torkian is amazing! I highly recommend him. He is an artist with a great eye and fantastic technique. I’m so happy with my fillers. He was so patient with me. I have a highly sensitivity to pain.
Parking was easy. He saw me on time. Good value.

So glad I went to Dr. Torkian! It’s been over a year since my procedure, and I have been so happy with the results! Due to a previous break, there was a bone that was out of place that disrupted my breathing. Dr. Torkian was able to fix the problem so that I am able to breathe better, but he also straightened my nose and made it look great! The follow up appointments are so helpful, and he always spends time with me and answers all my questions. I really like that he can show you what you will look like after the procedure… he is able to give you the best look for your face!
Olivia and Martha were always helpful too; they always took the time to answer my questions, and are so nice! It’s great to go to a place where you feel like everyone works together as a team, and I know that I made the right choice by going here!

Dr. Torkian and his team meet exceed anything you could ever possibly imagine from a plastic surgeon. Things ranging from pain control to getting you dressed and personally walking you to your car (Dr. Torkian). From day one the continue to amaze and surprise me with first class service!
Thank You!

Procedure: Radiesse/​artefil
Staff: Front desk people are nice. Martha gave me great discount on their promotion month which made the cost was totally affordable in my case.
Dr. Torkian: He is a true artist when it comes to face. My face is said to be above average by most people I know; therefore, when I mentioned some cosmetic fix to make it better, no one really knows what I was talking about and thought that I’m crazy and insecure about my look. I consulted with a couple doctors before doctor Torkian, one even said my face would look manly if I want my chin longer. When I showed up at Dr Torkian office, he noticed right away my imperfection and agreed with my concern. He’s not only a good doctor, also a good listener.
