Plastic Surgery staff serve on the Cincinnati Childrens Hospital Medical Center Craniofacial Center. What do plastic surgeons do for kids?
In addition to covering the Cincinnati Children’s Emergency Department for lacerations, the Plastic Surgery staff care for fractures and infections of the hand, tendon and nerve injuries, complex wounds of the face as well as damage in the soft tissues of the trunk and limbs and facial fractures. The staff evaluates and treats lesions such as moles, nevus, hemangiomas, skin tags and other masses. We also reconstruct congenital defects such as fused fingers, missing or extra fingers, cup ears, cleft lip and palate, craniosynostosis and burns.
