Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery in New Jersey
Advanced Procedures Across New Jersey
We offer various cosmetic and reconstructive surgery options to patients with aesthetic concerns or those whose quality of life has been adversely affected by illness or injury.

Cosmetic Surgery
The Plastic Surgery Department at Saint Barnabas Medical Center has been treating patients for more than 70 years. Our team includes 70 Board-Certified plastic surgeons who have extensive experience in their respective fields. Our reputation in the industry—and long history of high-quality results—make our center one of the most trusted plastic surgery facilities in the region.
Just some of the procedures our Plastic Surgery Department performs include:
Facelifts
Facelifts tighten the skin around the face to create a more taut, youthful
look. Facelifts are a popular option for older patients who are looking
to eliminate numerous signs of aging from their face.
Eyelid surgeries
Over time, our eyelids can droop, and we can appear to have "bags"
under our eyes. Our surgeons are well-versed in surgical solutions to
remedy this aesthetic issue.
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty is a resizing and shaping of the nose. In some cases, these
procedures are done for medical reasons (or after an injury) to improve
a patient's breathing, but they are popular with patients who are looking
for better aesthetic balance to their face, as well.
Liposuction
Liposuction involves the removal of excess fat from "trouble areas"
where patients may have trouble toning their body via traditional exercise
or dieting.
Breast augmentation
Breast augmentation is an effective option for patients who are unhappy
with the size and/or shape of their breasts. There are several breast
augmentation procedures and our surgeons are ready to discuss and recommend
options based on the patients' anatomy and desired results.
Plastic & Reconstructive surgery
Plastic or reconstructive surgery is similar to cosmetic surgery, but the goals of reconstructive surgeries are not just cosmetic improvements. Patients in need of reconstructive surgeries due to birth defects, illnesses and injuries often face psychological effects, mobility issues and other quality of life concerns because of their condition.
Commonly performed reconstructive surgeries include:
- Scar revision
- Breast reconstruction
- Breast reduction
- Tissue expansion
- Tissue transfers
- Hand and foot surgery
- Cleft palate or lip repair
- Skin cancer surgery
- Burn reconstruction
