Plastics & Reconstructive Surgery

A physical complication from an illness, accident or simply being unsatisfied with something about your own body can have a dramatic impact on quality of life. The board certified physicians at SSM Health offer reconstructive surgery options focused on making you feel whole again, and achieve a different appearance. Most health insurance policies do cover reconstructive surgery, although the amount could vary depending on the procedure.

Choosing to have surgery is a big decision. Our trusted plastic surgeons are dedicated to helping you achieve the best results. It’s important to communicate your expectations, goals and motivation for surgery with your SSM Health plastic surgeon. This lets you work together in determining whether plastic surgery is the right choice for you and how to best achieve those goals.
