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.
A believer in strong mental and physical health, Dr. Gantous personally enjoys painting, drawing, and doing martial arts when not in surgery. He is an avid reader and is fluent in Spanish, Italian, and French and dabbles in a few other languages. He enjoys spending time with his three adult children, family, and friends.
