How is Facial Reconstruction Surgery Performed?
At San Diego Plastic Surgery Center in San Diego, CA, Dr. Rodriguez provides advanced facial reconstruction surgery to address fractures, lacerations, and structural damage involving areas such as the cheekbones, jawbone, eye socket, and brow. These intricate procedures are meticulously planned to restore both form and function, with a focus on achieving a natural, symmetrical result.
During the procedure, patients are placed under general anesthesia for comfort. Dr. Rodriguez realigns bone segments and may use titanium plates and screws for stabilization.
In some cases, grafts from other parts of the body or flaps are incorporated to provide additional coverage and support. For more complex cases, multiple surgeries may be necessary to fully address the needs of the patient.
The length of the procedure depends on the severity of the injuries and the techniques required. Dr. Rodriguez takes a thoughtful, individualized approach to each case, conducting thorough evaluations and creating a treatment plan tailored to the patient's specific needs.
