Plastic and reconstructive surgery covers a wide spectrum of organ systems and body parts.
Most people think of plastic surgery as being synonymous with cosmetic surgery.
Plastic surgeons also do hand surgery including the repair of tendons, nerves, blood vessels, and bones of the hand and wrist. We are the leaders in the new field of microsurgery. Plastic surgeons were the first to re-attach body parts such as hands, fingers, arms and legs. Lasers are used by some plastic surgeons in the treatment of birthmarks, tattoos, and keloids. In addition, we perform skin grafting and treatment of slow or poor healing wounds, bedsores and ulcers.
