This subspecialty addresses a wide range of procedures for facial tissues around the eye including the eyelids, eyebrows, bony cavity around the eye, and tear duct system.

Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
Plastic and reconstructive surgery includes a diverse range of procedures to restore, enhance, or alter the body’s form and function. Plastic surgery primarily focuses on aesthetics, with procedures such as facial rejuvenation, body contouring, and breast augmentation. Reconstructive surgery, on the other hand, aims to restore normalcy following trauma, birth anomalies, or disease. Some examples include scar revision, cleft palate repair, and breast reconstruction after mastectomy.

When applied to the hand and shoulder, this specialty addresses a range of conditions that impact mobility, strength, and overall function. Orthopedic surgeons work to restore the intricate anatomy of the hand, which includes delicate bones, tendons, nerves, and ligaments. In contrast, shoulder surgery focuses on larger structures, including the shoulder joint, rotator cuff, and surrounding tissues. Our surgical center can accommodate all hand and shoulder orthopedic surgeries from minimally invasive endoscopic procedures to total shoulder replacements.
