Burn Surgery
BOOK APPOINTMENT
Reconstructive surgery is performed to increase mobility, restore lost sensation and/or create cosmetic improvements to areas of the body affected by burns.
Scar Revision
BOOK APPOINTMENT
Scar revision can include anything from topical treatments to surgery and is meant to minimize a scar so that it is more consistent with your surrounding skin tone and texture.
Mohs Reconstruction
BOOK APPOINTMENT
Mohs Reconstruction is a surgical procedure that’s used when skin cancer is like an iceberg. Beneath the skin, the cancerous cells cover a much larger region and there are no defined borders.
Panniculectomy
BOOK APPOINTMENT
A panniculectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the pannus — excess skin and tissue from the lower abdomen. Unlike a tummy tuck, the panniculectomy does not tighten the abdominal muscles for a more cosmetic appearance, disqualifying it as a cosmetic procedure.
Cyst/Lesion Removal
BOOK APPOINTMENT
A cyst is a closed sac under the skin filled with liquid and/or soft or hard material. Cysts can be found anywhere on the body. Although they are often slow-growing, painless, and movable lumps beneath the skin, they can occasionally become inflamed and tender. Minor surgery can help the cyst from coming back. Surgery will remove the discharge and the sac that make up the walls of the cyst.
Congenital Hand Abnormalities
Post Trauma Flap Surgery
BOOK APPOINTMENT
Congenital hand anomalies are deformities of the extremities that are present from birth. Surgery can often be performed as early as infancy to correct certain deformities, ensuring your child continues to grow properly.
Post Trauma Flap Surgery is a technique used to reposition your own skin, muscle and fat to reconstruct or cover your breast.
