Cancer Reconstruction

Repair of facial cancer defects that have been created using the Mohs technique often utilizes healthy adjacent skin flaps or skin grafts. Large facial cancers occasionally need to be repaired by the best surgeon for facial plastic procedures using free tissue transfer, ie skin, muscle, and/or bone from a different part of the body brought to fill the facial defect.

Cleft lip repair

Surgical correction of the cleft lip birth deformity. Typically, this procedure is performed around 3-6 months of age, and commonly involves repairing nostril asymmetry (tip rhinoplasty) as well as the lip deformity.

Cleft Palate Repair

Surgical correction of the cleft palate birth defect. The procedure is usually performed around 9-12 months of age. In addition to repairing the cleft in the roof of the mouth, ear tubes are commonly placed during the procedure to help prevent ear infections.

What is a Face Transplant?

A face transplant is a surgery that replaces part or all of a person’s face.  Candidates may include individuals whose faces were severely disfigured due to trauma, cancer or a birth defect and have failed or can’t tolerate any other treatment options.  Psychological testing is required to make sure a person is emotionally healthy enough to face transplant surgery. This process can take up to three years.

Facial Paralysis

Surgery to improve the facial deformity caused by facial paralysis. Various methods are utilized with the goal of improving facial symmetry and restoring facial animation. Small weights are frequently placed in the upper eyelid to help prevent eye dryness

Facial Trauma Reconstruction

Correction of facial fractures and/or facial lacerations, commonly suffered during motor vehicle accidents, fights, domestic violence, athletic events, animal bites, etc….Traumatic facial fractures frequently involve the jawbone, cheekbone, the eye socket, or the brow and require realignment of the bone segments and fixation for proper healing.

Traumatic facial lacerations can cause scarring, facial nerve damage, salivary duct transection, tear duct injury, or even loss of a body part (ear avulsion). Nasal correction may also be required following any severe trauma to the nose, including nasal fracture, or facial fracture.

Scar Revision

Various types of surgical techniques are performed as a way to camouflage facial scars.
