EXCEPTIONAL EDUCATION

A Texas Tech Medical School graduate, Dr. Zakhireh completed his general surgery residency at UCLA Harbor. Upon finishing a plastic surgery fellowship at the University of Utah, Dr. Zakhireh was invited to join the staff as a professor of plastic surgery. For details about his impressive credentials, visit Dr. Zakhireh’s CV.

Although he enjoyed his time in Salt Lake City, a 2004 visit to the Coachella Valley drastically altered his plans.

“I absolutely fell in love with it here, and I moved six months later!” he enthuses. “The mountains and open spaces have an exotic, calming quality to them.”

In 2005, Dr. Zakhireh joined the team at Cosmetic Surgery Institute of Palm Desert. When Dr. Craig Ball retired in December 2007, Dr. Zakhireh took over the practice.

“We’re the premier full-service cosmetic surgery center in the desert,” he says. “We offer both surgical and non-surgical solutions to cosmetic issues under one roof. In addition, our medical staff and esthetician staff are exceptionally customer service driven.”

Accomplished among Palm Springs area plastic surgeons, Dr. Zakhireh specializes in facelifts, tummy tucks, liposculpturing, and breast augmentation. Dr. Zakhireh is proud that vendors have noted his practice number one in the valley for BOTOX® Cosmetic and Restylane® treatments.

“People come to us to transform their lives,” he explains. “Their bodies may have been broken by time and Mother Nature, but we can transform their bodies and make them whole again. We are very fortunate at CSI, because we are at the crossroads of something very special. It’s truly a privilege to come to work and take part in these transformations each and every day.”
