Plastic Surgery Philosophy

It’s Dr. Miller’s unique approach and philosophy that truly distinguish him and his practice, earning him the reputation as one of the most skilled plastic and cosmetic surgeons in the Boston area. Working with patients to find the best solution for their needs and ensure they feel elated with the results, Dr. Miller and his staff, adhere to the following principals and regimen for each and every patient:

Establish and maintain a consultative partnership with the patient

  • Spend time with patients explaining the procedure(s) in detail
  • Discuss with patients what they can realistically expect from the procedure
  • Alleviate patients’ anxieties by answering all of their questions

Recommend procedures that yield a natural looking result

  • Discourage radical or extensive cosmetic surgery procedures
  • Communicate to patients that impressive results can often be achieved without dramatically transforming the patient. Dr. Miller truly believes that “less is often better”
  • Avoid an obvious “plastic surgery” look

Utilize the latest, most efficient techniques

  • Take a skilled and careful approach to avoid complications
  • Perform the latest techniques for better and more predictable results

Provide a comfortable operation or procedure

  • Facilitate a return to social interaction and work as soon as possible
  • Avoid extensive and invasive facelift procedures where possible by substituting alternate procedures such as liposuction, fat injections, chemical peels, laser resurfacing or facial implants

Ensure the procedure is a positive, satisfying and revitalizing experience. One where:

  • Expectations are met
  • Personal aesthetic appeal is improved and maintained
  • Scarring is minimal and unnoticeable
