From Injury to Recovery: How Reconstructive Surgery Can Help

Woman looks happily at her reflection in the mirror following facial trauma and reconstructive surgery. Trauma to your face or body can be physically, emotionally, and psychologically devastating. At Cosmetic and Reconstructive Specialists of Florida, our board-certified surgeons, Dr. Christopher Low and Dr. Michael Cheungoffer reconstructive procedures that restore your appearance, function, comfort, and confidence. With advanced training in both cosmetic and reconstructive surgery, our team is uniquely qualified to help you heal after an injury.

Common Injuries Requiring Reconstructive Surgery

Accidents, falls, sports injuries, and animal bites may necessitate reconstructive surgery. Some of the most frequently treated concerns include:

  • Facial fractures (such as the nose, cheekbones, or orbital bones)
  • Deep lacerations or avulsions
  • Burn injuries
  • Soft tissue damage from trauma or infection
  • Nerve or tendon injuries affecting movement or sensation

Each injury is unique, and so is the surgical approach. Our team focuses on restoring the affected area’s form and function, tailoring treatment to your needs and goals.

What to Expect from Reconstructive Treatment

Reconstructive surgery often involves multiple stages of healing and sometimes more than one procedure. Your journey typically begins with a comprehensive evaluation, including imaging and discussing your medical history and future needs. Our surgeons then develop a personalized plan that may involve bone realignment, soft tissue repair, scar revision, or nerve reconstruction.

Our goal is to repair visible damage while simultaneously addressing underlying functional issues, such as restoring sensation, muscle control, or natural movement. Depending on the injury, we may also work in collaboration with other medical specialists to ensure full-scope care.

Healing Beyond the Physical

Injuries can leave lasting emotional scars, especially when they affect the face. Reconstructive surgery plays an important role in emotional recovery by helping you feel like yourself again. Whether you’re looking to regain confidence, facial symmetry, or basic function, we offer compassionate care every step of the way.

We understand that navigating trauma recovery can be overwhelming. That’s why we emphasize clear communication, detailed aftercare, and long-term follow-up to support you through every phase of healing.
