Stanislaw Facial Plastic Surgery Center

Dr. Paul Stanislaw is a Board Certified Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeon. This is different than a General Plastic Surgeon, in both training and in scope of practice. A Facial Plastic Surgeon completes a five year residency in Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery Twenty 5 percent of the Head & Neck Surgery Residency is in Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery. A Facial Plastic Surgeon after that completes a fellowship in Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery which is committed to only plastic surgery of the face and neck.

These cases are after that reviewed to makMy practice is strictly Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery.
In contrast, a General Plastic Surgeon completes a 5 year residency in General Surgery and a fellowship as a whole Plastic Surgery. A General Plastic Surgery Fellowship encompasses hand surgery, body reconstructive surgery, body cosmetic surgery, facial reconstructive surgery, and facial cosmetic surgery.

In today's healthcare environment, more and more doctors are offering cosmetic treatments to try to supplement their revenue in the face of declining insurance reimbursements. These doctors might be Board Certified in Emergency Medicine, Obstetrics/ Gynecology, Internal Medicine, Family Practice, or Dentistry, yet none of these board certifications include training in cosmetic injections or cosmetic surgery. Therefore, these doctors attend a weekend course that supplies "Board Certification in Aesthetic Medicine". After completing the weekend course, these doctors return home and tell their patients that they are "Board Certified in Aesthetic Medicine". When consulting with a doctor about a cosmetic procedure, it is really important that you ask the doctor regarding their board certification.
