Our Consultation Process

As a cornerstone of Dr. Torkian’s practice, he has a comprehensive consultation process that fulfills several crucial aspects of cosmetic surgery. Firstly, it allows the patient to express his or her cosmetic goals, which is the first priority of any plastic surgery procedure.

Dr. Torkian's Three-Dimensional Approach to Beverly Hills Rhinoplasty Consultations

Constantly striving to deliver the best Beverly Hills rhinoplasty possible, Dr. Torkian takes his consultation one step further. He uses a three-dimensional imaging machine called the Vectra®, developed by Canfield Imaging Systems. Rather than using only communication in discussing the result, you and Dr. Torkian can use this device to visually demonstrate how you want your nose to look. Patients can actually customize their own surgery by adjusting the results until it is exactly to their personal specifications. With the Canfield Vectra, Dr. Torkian establishes a complete understanding between doctor and patient, which is invaluable in the field of cosmetic surgery.

How It Works

Patients considering certain facial procedures can benefit from a consultation using the Vectra 3D system that allows them to visualize their new face before actually committing to the procedure. Both the Vectra 3D camera and Sculptor software were developed by Canfield Imaging Systems of Fairfield, NJ—the world's leading provider of medical photography systems.

The process starts with a Vectra 3D session, which produces a three-dimensional photograph of the patient. Then, using Sculptor software, Dr. Torkian is able to simulate the expected results of a variety of aesthetic procedures, including rhinoplasty, chin augmentation, and more. Because they are 3D models, these images can be viewed from all angles, in addition to side-by-side comparisons and translucent overlays.

The Vectra System

By using the Vectra, patients can also see the benefits of combining more than one procedure to achieve facial balance and an improved appearance. A variety of combinations can be previewed to see which ones provide the best results. Seeing these images before undergoing surgery can significantly reduce stress about the outcome.

The Vectra system can be used to visualize results for a number of facial cosmetic procedures, including:

How Closely Does The Outcome Resemble The Vectra Image?

Simply put, Dr. Torkian’s superior surgical skill and attention to detail allow for results that closely mirror your predicted outcome on the Vectra. Knowing this, patients are happier both before and after their surgery. In fact, they report that Dr. Torkian’s use of the Vectra not only provides amazing rhinoplasty results but also because of the dramatically reduced stress surrounding the procedure.
