U Plastic Surgery is a private, boutique plastic surgery practice built mainly on patient referrals. It’s flattering, of course, but more than that, we are delighted that patients love not only how beautiful they look after their procedure, but that they also rave to their friends about the way they were treated. The practice was founded by award-winning, fellowship-trained, board-certified plastic surgeon, Maakan Taghizadeh, MD, who takes his work very seriously but has a warm and casual approach to the way he interacts with others. He says that formality is just not in his DNA.
