Matthew Tamplen, MD

I was very nervous to get this procedure because a face surgery is a big deal. But dr. Tamplen made me feel comfortable and confident about it. I hated my side profile and it is now fixed!! 1 less insecurity thanks to dr. Tamplen and his crew. Back office lady’s are very nice and comforting at the time of cast removal as well. 10/10 experience.

He is a nose GOD!!!!!! My nose looks 1000 times better and smaller. It’s done well enough that you can’t tell I had something done. However, everyone keeps telling me how beautiful I look. I feel so much more confident! He is the BEST! Recommend him to anyone who wants rhinoplasty. You won’t be disappointed.

My experience with Dr. Tamplen was incredible. I picked him based on his before and afters and my goals for surgery after our consultation. He was very honest and realistic about expectations and he truly delivered. I’m only 6 weeks post op so still some swelling in the tip but I am so happy with the results, they are even better than I could have imagined. My only regret is not doing it sooner.

Everything was amazing! The rhinoplasty was perfect and I have the exact nose that I always wanted. Dr and staff are amazing and bedside manner was impeccable. They were very quick to answer whenever I had questions! I’m so excited for my new look, Dr Tamplen is truly an artist on top of a great scientist.

Had a rhinoplasty in March and the experience was great and I am very happy with the results. Scheduling the consult and surgery was easy, and while I had more bruising than expected the team was really responsive and helpful with all of my post op concerns and needs. Nose looks great!

I’m leaving this review for those who have had a prior botched rhino and are terrified of having another one. I had a large pore removed from my nose which left a large indent, then had it stitched up, and ultimately had surgery 6 or so years ago and it left my right nostril quite a bit higher than my left, the indent was still there, and it looked like I had two halves of two noses pieced together. I tried to just make peace with it, but it was the first thing I noticed in every picture. I did a lot of research on revision rhinos and was impressed with Dr Tamplens abilities. It’s always a huge leap of faith to let someone alter your face, but I decided to take the risk bc I was so unhappy. I’m glad I did because my nose looks significantly better. The indent is gone, my nostrils are symmetrical and my tip is defined. There’s no such thing as a ‘perfect’ nose (I’m adding that for those of you who are a bit obsessive like I am), but I’m grateful I took the plunge bc I’m very happy with my nose now. Also, recovery isn’t bad at all. The worst part is the stents, mostly bc my nose is always runny so I had to breathe out of my mouth a lot at first. Recovery was quick and pain free. Overall, I’m very happy with my results and I would highly recommend Dr Tamplen and his team. They are fantastic.

I had an ethnic rhinoplasty and lower blepharoplasty with Dr. Tamplen in December. I am currently two months out. My lower blepharoplasty was PERFECT a week out from surgery. I went in for cast removal and it was excellent! I am still healing from my rhinoplasty but the improvement is insane, like I can't believe it's me. He gave me a nose that fits my face. There is still some uneven swelling but it's healing nicely. I will update this as my healing progresses. My lower bleph is still perfect. If you are sitting on the fence about getting this done, GET IT DONE! I felt OK being in public 3 weeks after surgery, every week gets better. Will also add pics in the future.

Dr. Tamplen is the best cosmetic provider I have ever had. He’s so knowledgeable and attentive. His skill in fillers is unmatched. He talks out his plan and is overall an amazing doctor. I will always trust him for my filler and Botox!

I had a facelift age 64. During my consultation with Dr Tamplen I was impressed with his quiet confidence and thorough understanding of what I wanted to achieve. The surgery went very well, and the results absoluteky exceeded my expectations. The result I wanted (but unsure how attainable it would be) was to turn the clock
back but still look completely natural, and this is exactly what he achieved. For anyone wanting the best result they can get, I cannot recommend Dr Tamplen and his team highly enough.

I met Dr.Tamplen when he was working at Kaiser. Since opening his practice one of my biggest insecurities was my “double chin” I made the decision that for my 40th birthday I wanted to treat myself and get rid of it.
I called and made a consult appointment with Dr.Tamplen and it was the BEST decision I’ve made. I am absolutely in LOVE with the results, and how professional and attentive he is. He made this process such an easy one!
