Plastic surgery is a surgical specialty involving the restoration, reconstruction, or alteration of the human body. It can be divided into two main categories – reconstructive surgery and cosmetic surgery. A plastic surgeon’s primary responsibility is performing surgical and non-surgical procedures, and they use a variety of reparative and reconstructive techniques to get the job done.

Delivering excellent outcomes, Dr. Wingate is the recipient of the 2022 West Chester Lifestyle Reader’s Choice Award by West Chester Lifestyle Magazine.
