During 30 years as a board certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Kris Reddy FACS, a highly honored West Palm Beach cosmetic surgeon in Palm Beach County, Florida, has achieved plastic surgery excellence with a personal touch.

Dr. Reddy, a West Palm Beach pediatric plastic surgery expert and board certified plastic surgeon, has the rare double honor of being a Fellow of American and International College of Surgeons, the only cosmetic surgeon in Palm Beach County, Florida to hold both of these prestigious honors. Dr. Reddy is also a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. Dr. Reddy continually receives high patient ratings and excellent reviews.

While pediatric plastic surgery encompasses a number of procedures, Dr. Reddy focuses his talents with children on Otoplasty (ear surgery) and Rhinoplasty (nose surgery).

Prominent protruding ears can look unnatural. By three to four years of age children begin to recognize the difference in their ears from that of their peers. However, it is not until six to ten years of age that caustic remarks begin to leave psychological scars. Usually children are born with prominent ears and often it is inherited. Through a minor procedure the ears can be set back to a natural position. There is a very little discomfort and children can resume a fairly normal schedule within a week. It is best to undergo the procedure around six years of age or older. At this age the ear has achieved at least 90% of its adult size and children seem to be more compliant with the treatment. Most importantly, the intervention is early enough to prevent the damaging effects of cruel psychological remarks.

Rhinoplasty (nose surgery) can be performed to meet aesthetic goals or for reconstructive purposes-to correct birth defects or breathing problems. Age may also be a consideration. Many surgeons prefer not to operate on teenagers until after they've completed their growth spurt-around 14 or 15 for girls, a bit later for boys. It's important to consider teenagers' social and emotional adjustment, too, and to make sure it's what they, and not their parents, really want.

As a public service, Dr. Reddy dramatically reduces his fees so that families can more easily afford the costs for the procedure that we continually see improves the child's self image and brings out his or her self confidence. The appreciative smiles that we receive from the children and parents are a tremendous reward.

Our ability to perform this public service is dependent on the generosity of a number of professionals including anesthesiologists, physician assistants, and nurses. We would welcome any professional who would wish to assist us in our mission.

During your free and private consultation, Dr. Reddy will determine if your child is a candidate for the procedure.

We are committed to helping as many children as we can.
