Reconstructive Surgery Jacksonville

Reconstructive surgery in Jacksonville is performed by our board certified reconstructive plastic surgeons using the latest corrective techniques and the most advanced surgical equipment. The goals of reconstructive facial surgery often differ from those of elective cosmetic surgery although many of the plastic procedures may be the same for both. Our reconstructive surgeons perform plastic surgery to correct abnormal facial structures caused by birth defects, developmental abnormalities of the face, and trauma from injury, disease, infections, tumors or malignant cancers. In some cases, the developmental problems may also be directly related to conditions caused by the aging face.

In the United States, skin cancer is the most common form of cancer and often requires a plastic surgeon to perform reconstructive surgery to restore the natural appearance of the face's structure and skin. Typically, your Mohs dermatologist will have already removed the cancerous tissue, but you are likely left with unwanted changes to your appearance. Depending upon the location and severity of the cancer, the resulting consequences may range from minor scarring to a more permanent change in the structure and appearance of your face, nose, mouth or ear. Our reconstructive surgeons can review your procedures and outline your best options for reconstructive surgery as a corrective and restorative plastic procedure.

To find out more about your options for reconstructive surgery, contact Garcia Facial Plastic Surgery at 1-800-803-0082 to discuss your needs for corrective plastic surgery. Our plastic surgeons are board certified and have experience in post-cancer reconstructions, cleft lip and cleft plate surgery, craniofacial trauma, flap microsurgery and reconstructive surgeries for the upper and lower facial extremities. In the early weeks of development, the sides of the lip and the roof of the mouth normally grow together. When a child is born with a separation in the upper lip and palate, the condition is referred to as a "hairlip" and requires the expertise of a reconstructive plastic surgeon for correction.

Disease such as cancer and trauma from accidental injuries are often the cause of devastating changes in the appearance of the face and the function of the eyes, nose, mouth or ears. Advances in surgical reconstruction and microsurgical techniques have dramatically improved and provide many more options for today's plastic surgeon to make permanent corrections for both appearance and function. Injuries involving the loss of facial skin and/or soft tissues can be successfully reconstructed by employing state-of-the-art technologies and improved cosmetic techniques for more natural post-operative results.
