Craniofacial Surgery in NYC involves treatment of facial differences in both children and adults. The most common etiologies include congenital malformations, traumatic deformities, and disfigurements after surgery for cancer. For patients with these facial differences, the physical and mental toll for themselves and their families can be profound.
What's Involved in the Craniofacial Surgery?
Expertise in dealing with these disorders requires not only a fellowship-trained Craniofacial Surgeon, but also a competent, coordinated, multidisciplinary team approach that can help you through this difficult time. For over 27 years, the New York Group for Plastic Surgery has been there for our New York patients providing experience and precision for craniofacial surgery with a caring approach to patient care.
Why Choose New York Group for Plastic Surgery?
Members of the team typically include the craniofacial surgeon, neurosurgeon, otolaryngologist (ENT), orthodontist, ophthalmologist, speech pathologist, psychologist, social worker, nurses, and patient coordinators. Input from each specialist helps create a personalized treatment plan tailored to each child’s needs.
At New York Group for Plastic Surgery, Dr. Jacobs is fellowship-trained at one of the top craniofacial centers in the country, New York University Medical Center. He works as part of a multidisciplinary team alongside experts at Westchester Medical Center and Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital to provide world-class care for children with facial differences. In addition to his local work, Dr. Jacobs has participated in several international charitable missions to deliver craniofacial reconstruction to children in need around the world.
We Offer Virtual Surgical Planning
We are one of the only centers in the country to be able to offer Virtual Surgical Planning of complex craniofacial reconstructions. It starts with a three-dimensional rendering of the patient’s craniofacial skeleton. In the virtual surgical environment, the facial anatomy can be manipulated in order to create the ideal reconstruction.
Customized, patient-specific surgical tools are then generated to help translate the virtual plan into reality. This exciting new technology allows precision planning and execution while shortening the operative time. Additionally, patients, as well as other treating physicians, are able to view the final reconstruction preoperatively.
