About us | Specialist Reconstructive & Plastic Surgery

A plastic surgeon is a specialist trained in both cosmetic (aesthetic) and reconstructive surgery. They improve appearance, restore form and function, and treat conditions affecting the skin, breast, hands, and other soft tissues. At CEPS, all procedures are performed by specialist plastic surgeon Dr Adam Greenbaum.

A plastic surgeon completes extensive specialist training in reconstructive and cosmetic surgery, while a “cosmetic surgeon” may not be a specialist and may not have formal plastic surgery qualifications. CEPS is led by a fully qualified plastic and reconstructive surgeon, ensuring the highest standard of surgical care. Read more in our blog.
