If you’ve been thinking about plastic surgery but have yet to take the leap—or if you have and are looking for a quality local physician—you’re in luck as Tamplen Plastic Surgery just opened the doors at its new Scottsdale location.

Home to Dr. Matthew Tamplen, M.D., a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon, Tamplen Plastic Surgery is ready to serve Valley residents who are looking into plastic surgery and want a physician with impressive experience and expertise.

“I am an experienced facial plastic surgeon with an ENT (ear, nose, and throat) background. This helps me make sure rhinoplasties not only turn out aesthetically pleasing but are functional as well,” Dr. Tamplen says. “We are excited to be opening our new Scottsdale area and partnering with ZONA MedSpa. I look forward to helping Valley patients with their facial cosmetic needs.”

Dr. Tamplen specializes purely in the face and notes that rhinoplasty, also known as a “nose job,” is one of his most popular procedures. “Rhinoplasty is one of the more difficult plastic surgery procedures and techniques of the past that focus mostly on removing humps simply don’t work in the long term. I’ve had patients who come to me to fix a past rhinoplasty that was done for form but not function,” he says. “I always make sure that patients’ procedures are structurally set up for success. That’s why I focus so much on supporting the tip of the nose. It looks beautiful, lasts a lifetime and breathes well.”

In addition to his in-demand Rhinoplasty and Revision procedures, Dr. Tamplen also offers:
• Face and neck lifts
• Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery)
• Brow lifts
• Mini facelifts
• Buccal Fat contouring
• Botox and fillers

When it comes to credentials, Dr. Tamplen’s resume is impressive. After Medical School at UCLA and residency at UCSF, he completed a prestigious Fellowship in Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery with the former president of The Academy of Facial Plastic Surgery, Dr. Edward H. Farrior.

Dr. Tamplen was awarded the Jack R. Anderson Award for Scholastic Excellence in 2018; a prize awarded annually to the U.S. or Canadian surgeon who achieves the highest combined score on the written and oral portions of the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery examination.

In addition to the new Valley location, Tamplen Plastic Surgery has other practices in California. Dr. Tamplen shares that his plan is to split his time between his locations, but that the Scottsdale area will be his home base.

“We moved to Scottsdale and opened a practice here to be a part of this wonderful community and to start a family,” he says. “I can’t wait to plant roots here and grow my Scottsdale practice.”

Dr. Tamplen is excited to have partnered with Zona Med Spa at 9767 N. 91st St., Ste. B102, Scottsdale.
