Dr. Sessa received his Doctor of Medicine (MD) from the Louisiana State University School of Medicine in New Orleans in 2000. As a plastic surgeon, Dr. Sessa specializes in the enhancement of appearance. Improving aesthetics, symmetry, and proportion are key goals in cosmetic surgery. Cosmetic medicine has nothing to do with these specific areas not functioning properly; therefore, this elective field solely focuses on aesthetics and anti-aging.

The ABCS is dedicated to excellence in the medical specialty of cosmetic surgery and committed to providing the highest standard of care for patients. Their diplomates demonstrate the highest standards of training, knowledge, and expertise in the cosmetic surgery specialty while promoting safe and ethical practice. As the only certifying board that exclusively tests a surgeon’s knowledge and experience in cosmetic surgery, ABCS board certification is reserved for extraordinary surgeons who already possess at least one recognized board certificate, complete a comprehensive AACS certified fellowship training program in cosmetic surgery, and pass rigorous written and oral exams. 

Dr. Sessa enjoys spending his free time with his wife Lisa and three young sons. When he gets the chance, you may find him cycling around Sarasota or practicing yoga at the gym.
