With plastic and cosmetic surgery, there are different areas of medicine that overlap one another. A double-board certified plastic surgeon, like Harvard-trained plastic surgeon Dr. Babak Azizzadeh, is someone who is double board certified. Plastic surgery is a specialty by itself, and also in conjunction with another area of specialty, such as ear, nose and throat surgery (otolaryngology).

A board-certified otolaryngologist, for example, can also be a certified plastic surgeon with the head and neck. Head and neck plastic surgery is a subspecialty of general plastic surgery. Consequently, there is a wide range of board-certified surgeons who specialize in different areas of medicine and practice as plastic and cosmetic surgeons.

If you are considering cosmetic facial surgery and you live in the Beverly Hills area of California, please contact Dr. Babak Azizzadeh today.
