Dr. Bain's Philosophy
"To me, everything in plastic surgery is necessarily cosmetic. The results are visible. I take my time and constantly refine the techniques to be sure each of my patients get the best results possible."
"My patients can count on my recommendations being proven, safe and effective. If it is not going to work 5 to 10 years from now, I won't do it."
"We don't measure our success in numbers. We measure it by the degree to which we can make every patient happy. Our greatest satisfaction as a practice is delivering the highest quality of care every day with every patient."

A Patient-Centered Approach
Compassionate and dedicated, Dr. Bain's straightforward, unpretentious style has a comforting effect on even the most anxious patients. He strikes a perfect balance being on the cutting edge of the latest treatments without compromising the predictability or longevity of results.
While inherently conservative, Dr. Bain has developed new techniques in the applications of Botox®, breast reconstruction for women with birth defects, and a special procedure for upper lip lifts as an adjunct to facial rejuvenation.
The atmosphere created by Dr. Bain instills trust and respect. Being a skilled surgeon with a great "bedside manner" is an uncommon combination. Dr. Bain wants every patient who visits to feel valued and heard by taking into account their individual needs, goals and lifestyles.
