Robert Whitfield, MD FACS

Specialties

Dr. Robert Whitfield, MD, FACS, is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. Dr. Whitfield meets with each patient personally to listen to their interests and concerns regarding surgery. Having plastic surgery is an incredibly important decision that requires clear and thoughtful discussion about the risks and benefits of a procedure whether it is of the breast or body. Dr. Whitfield performs a high number of breast procedures including, breast reconstruction after lumpectomy or mastectomy, breast augmentation, breast lift, breast reduction, tummy tuck and mommy makeovers. Many of these procedures are done in conjunction with liposuction for fat removal or to use as fat graft in another area of the body such as the breast or face. Since so many patients are concerned with non-​invasive ways to remove fat Dr. Whitfield performs CoolSculpting for patients who are not interested in surgery or for health reasons are choosing not to have surgery. CoolSculpting allows you to freeze the fat of the abdomen, love handles, inner thighs and back to cause permanent fat loss. CoolSmooth allows for the saddle bag fat of the lateral thigh to be frozen and permanently eliminated.
