At Kern Medical, we offer a wide range of plastic and reconstructive surgical procedures. While most people think cosmetic and plastic surgery are interchangeable terms, but plastic surgery also encompasses reconstruction of congenital differences, defects of the breasts or head and neck, as well as reconstruction after trauma. The goal of reconstructive plastic surgery is to restore form, improve self-esteem, and improve body function.
Our board-certified plastic surgeons work closely with a multidisciplinary team of physicians practicing in fields such as dermatology, head and neck surgery, and oral and maxillofacial surgery, as well as breast, orthopedic, and neurosurgeries. The techniques used in these cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery procedures may involve minimally invasive endoscopic methods, flap surgery, laser surgery, skin grafts, or tissue expansion.
We offer the following reconstructive surgeries:
Getting ready for surgery can be daunting but preparing in advance can set your mind at ease. Make sure you discuss with your surgeon about the benefits, risks, and expectations of your procedure. Some reconstructive plastic surgery requires multiple stages to achieve the desired results, as is the case for most women who undergo breast reconstruction, for example.
Our reconstructive plastic surgeons work closely with you to help you achieve natural-looking results and the optimal functional outcome.
