Plastic Surgery

Pediatric plastic surgery helps kids affected by injury, disease, and birth defects

Any operation that improves a child’s physical appearance can be considered "plastic," but what we do at Nemours is different. We’re focused on pediatric plastic surgery that betters the movement and function of parts affected by injury, disease, genetic syndromes, birth defects, or abnormal development and improves a child’s outside appearance and helps kids feel better about themselves on the inside.
