Facial Reconstructive Surgery
Facial reconstruction is fundamentally different from cosmetic facial surgery — the goal is not enhancement but restoration. Whether the facial deformity resulted from trauma, cancer surgery, congenital condition, burns, infection, or previous unsuccessful surgery, reconstructive work aims to restore a face that has been altered by injury or illness to a natural-appearing, functional anatomy. Dr. Maurice Khosh’s reconstructive practice covers the full range of conditions that can change the appearance and function of the face: facial fractures, scar revision, facial nerve paralysis, Mohs cancer reconstruction, burn injuries, and congenital deformities, among others. While he is a highly skilled facial plastic surgeon widely recognized for cosmetic work including facelift surgery, rhinoplasty, and blepharoplasty, reconstructive work has long been at the heart of his practice — and his published expertise reflects that focus.
Effective facial reconstruction requires not only technical surgical skill but also depth of published expertise across the range of reconstructive techniques required. Dr. Khosh’s published work includes chapters on the surgical treatment of facial scars (through Thieme Publishers) and tissue expansion (through eMedicine) — the foundational publications most directly relevant to facial reconstruction. Dual board-certified by the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and the American Board of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, Dr. Khosh holds active hospital privileges at NewYork-Presbyterian, Mount Sinai West, the Manhattan Eye, Ear, and Throat Infirmary (MEETH), and Lenox Hill Hospital. A Fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS), he has been recognized as a perennial Castle Connolly Top Doctor and a Best Doctors in America honoree — making him a leading Manhattan choice for complex facial reconstruction.
