The head and neck cosmetic and reconstructive surgery specialists at RUSH University Medical Center treat patients whose appearance, ability to speak, swallow or smile has been affected by cancer surgery or radiation therapy. They also provide a wide range of in-office facial cosmetic procedures and surgical rejuvenation techniques.
Peter Revenaugh, MD, the head of the section of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at RUSH University Medical Center, joins the podcast to talk about how RUSH’s comprehensive approach translates to excellent patient care, the research RUSH is conducting around reconstructive procedures and how the COVID-19 pandemic affected the demand for cosmetic procedures.
“What makes RUSH stand apart is the expertise of our physicians. We can help patients with facial paralysis. We can offer microvascular procedures to help with facial movement. We’re pioneering procedures for synkinesis or abnormal facial movements after paralysis that aren’t being done anywhere else in the country.”
