SUMMARY

Plastic surgeon Alanna M. Rebecca, M.D., focuses on finding new techniques, through research, to evolve complex reconstruction surgeries. These complex reconstructions involve breasts, cancer and areas of cosmetic surgery.

Focus areas

• Breast surgery including deep inferior epigastric perforator flap procedures and augmentation.
• Facial rejuvenation.
• Minimally invasive facial surgery.
• Blepharoplasty, known as eyelid lift.
• Cancer and Mohs reconstruction.
• Reconstructive microsurgery and complex reconstruction.
• Surgical treatment of lymphedema including vascularized lymph node transfer, lymphovenous bypass, liposuction and excision.
• Lower extremity, trunk, perineal, and head and neck reconstruction.
• Cosmetic surgery including face, breast, body surgery and noninvasive rejuvenation.
• Robotics in plastic surgery.

Significance to patient care

Dr. Rebecca is internationally known for complex reconstructive and cosmetic surgeries such as breast reconstructions, extremity reconstructions and aesthetic procedures. She is a leader in developing new techniques in plastic surgery such as the 3D nipple areola tattoo stencil, post- mastectomy resensation and robotic lymph node transplant. She brings new techniques to people and studies the implications of these new procedures.
