A facial plastic surgeon is a medical doctor who specializes in surgical procedures that enhance or reconstruct the face. They are trained in both cosmetic and reconstructive surgery, focusing on improving appearance and restoring function. Common procedures include facelifts, rhinoplasty (nose surgery), and eyelid surgery. These surgeons typically complete a residency in plastic surgery and may further specialize in facial procedures. They use their expertise to address various concerns, such as aging, injury, or congenital conditions. Patients often seek their services to achieve a more balanced and youthful appearance while ensuring safety and effective results.
