Services
Breast Reconstruction
Our surgeons specialize in advanced breast reconstruction techniques following mastectomy or trauma. Using flap reconstruction and tissue expansion methods, we create natural-looking results that restore body symmetry and confidence. With over 75 years of collective experience, our team prioritizes both functional restoration and aesthetic outcomes, offering personalized treatment plans that may include nipple-sparing techniques and immediate reconstruction options.
Rhinoplasty
We perform both cosmetic and functional rhinoplasty procedures to improve facial harmony and breathing function. Our surgeons address congenital deformities, trauma-related injuries, and revision cases using advanced techniques that maintain natural nasal structure. With expertise from leading medical institutions, we ensure results that enhance appearance while preserving or improving respiratory function through precise cartilage and bone reshaping.
Hand Surgery
Our Institute for Hand Surgery treats complex conditions affecting the upper extremities, including nerve injuries, arthritis, and traumatic wounds. Specializing in microsurgery and peripheral nerve repair, our surgeons restore function and mobility through innovative techniques. With experience in both acute trauma care and chronic condition management, we help patients regain hand functionality and reduce pain through personalized treatment approaches.
Non-Surgical Injectables
Our medical spa offers FDA-approved injectables for facial rejuvenation and volume restoration. Using BOTOX, JUVEDERM, and Sculptra, our specialists address wrinkles, facial volume loss, and skin texture concerns. With board-certified plastic surgeons administering treatments, we ensure safe, natural-looking results that enhance features while maintaining facial expressiveness through precise injection techniques.
Pediatric Craniofacial Surgery
We provide specialized care for children with congenital facial deformities including cleft lip/palate and craniosynostosis. Our multidisciplinary team delivers comprehensive treatment plans that address both functional needs and aesthetic development. With expertise in complex pediatric cases, we perform life-changing surgeries that improve breathing, eating, and social development while minimizing hospital stays through coordinated care approaches.
