Plastic Surgery

Plastic surgery encompasses everything from correcting birth defects such as cleft palates to post-cancer breast reconstruction and work-related hand injuries. Plastic surgeons care about the functional and overall results after surgery, not just the aesthetics (although we are specifically trained to optimize those, as well).

Most patients are not the rich and famous, but are average people who simply wish to restore function, confidence, enhance their overall appearance and improve their lives.

Although women have been the traditional customers of plastic surgery, men need plastic surgery as well for a variety of conditions needing correction of bodily function.

Plastic surgeons are great at making scars look better, more refined and smaller, but all types of plastic surgery will generally cause some type of scar formation. We can often recommend the best way to minimize scarring, and give advice and treatments on how to make your scar look as great as possible after surgery.

• Birth defects : Cleft lip and Palate,
