Craniofacial Medical Centers

FACES makes no referrals to specific craniofacial reconstructive surgeons; however, as one of our services to you, we are providing this list of teams across the country. This list is arranged by state, with those in Canada being at the end of the list. New centers are being established every year; therefore, this list does not include every one. You may wish to contact the International Society of Craniomaxillofacial Surgeons and The American Society of Plastic Surgeons for additional centers at http://www.plasticsurgery.org or (888) 475-2784.
