Facial Reconstructive Surgery

Dr. Fechner is committed to providing the most up-to-date facial reconstructive treatment for his patients. In his mind, every reconstructive effort should focus on both, normal function and an aesthetically pleasing result. Congenital ailments, trauma or surgical treatments (i.e., skin cancer excision) can jeopardize the healthy harmony of form, function and cosmesis.

Scar Revision

Every extensive enough injury to the facial skin will leave a visible scar. Dr. Fechner realizes that unsightly scars within the face can be very bothersome and distracting to patients. The plastic surgeon can significantly improve the appearance of such facial scars.

Dr. Fechner applies various scar revision techniques to improving the aesthetic appearance of such facial scars. Options vary widely from office treatments designed to soften and camouflage a scar to surgical scar revision that will help the scar to better blend in with the surrounding facial skin.

Acne scaring, for instance, can successfully be treated with the new Collagen Induction Therapy. If surgical scar improvement is necessary, Dr. Fechner uses a multitude of different artistic correction techniques.

During a private consultation, Dr. Fechner will explain which options are right for the patient and the particular location and condition of the scar. Scar revision is performed as an outpatient procedure. Get more information on Scar Revision.

Facial Skin Cancer and Repair

Skin cancer is becoming more common among us, even in younger people. Most of the time surgical excision can cure these conditions successfully. Commonly, facial skin cancers are found in sensitive areas like the nose, around the eyes or the cheek. Therefore, Dr. Fechner places high emphasis on aesthetic reconstruction so that his patients achieve a good reconstructive result and are not left with unattractive facial scars.

Often, a two-team approach can provide the best treatment plan and result: A dermatologic surgeon removes a skin cancer and Dr. Fechner provides optimal cosmetic reconstruction. Most reconstructive procedures after skin cancer excision are performed safely in an outpatient setting. Get more information on Eyelid Reconstruction, Lip Reconstruction and Skin Cancer.

Nasal Trauma (Broken Nose)

The nasal bones are the most commonly broken bones of the humen skeleton. Its prominent position within the face makes the nose very susceptible to injury. The consequences of nasal fracture usually include impaired function (i.e., breathing, smell, taste, snoring etc.) and an unattractive look of the nose (i.e., crooked nose).

The modern treatment approach to the broken nose has changed signficantly over the last 10 years. Today, Dr. Fechner favors an earlier intervention in order to optimize the result. Most of the surgical techniques used by Dr. Fechner for repair of the broken nose are lent from rhinoplasty, surgery to reshape the nose. Therefore, Dr. Fechner’s thorough understanding of functional and aesthetic surgery of the nose helps him to achieve excellent results in the repair of the fractured nose.

A private consultation with Dr. Fechner will help the patient to understand his/her very specific situation. Surgical correction after nasal fracture is safely performed as an outpatient procedure.
