Reconstructive Surgery in Philadelphia

Making Life Easier with Reconstructive Surgery

Not all plastic surgery options are purely aesthetic in nature. There are many procedures that have practical benefits and results. Whether you have problems resulting from trauma, disease, or other issues, the surgeons at the Morgenstern Center can help you decide on the right reconstructive surgery option to address your particular needs. These include, but are not limited to:

• Eyelid reconstruction: it's easy to tear the delicate and thin skin of the eyelid through trauma; if you've had a tumor or other growth removed, you may need an eyelid correction surgery to have the tissue restored.
• Earlobe repair: wearing heavy earrings for a long time can elongate your earlobe or even tear through; trauma to the earlobe can also necessitate an earlobe repair.
• Scar revision: if it's been at least a year since you've gained a scar, especially on your face or neck, you can look into having a scar revision procedure to minimize its appearance, so it is less visible.
• Tear drain surgery: particularly painful, having a blocked tear duct can result in irritation, infection and necessitate tear duct surgery.

These and other procedures are available under the skilled hands of the surgeons at the Morgenstern Center. They will help you explore all your options and decide on which, if any, procedure is right for you. As with all surgeries, it's important to trust your body to the right surgeons and medical team.
