Nao Wakabayashi

Nao Wakabayashi I am committed to attentive counseling and procedures that stay close to each patient's concerns! I am Nao Wakabayashi, board-certified plastic surgeon. After completing my residency, driven by a strong interest sparked in medical school classes and a natural aptitude for fine manual work, I joined a university department of plastic surgery where I could gain experience in microsurgery. There I treated and operated on a wide range of plastic surgery conditions across the whole body and obtained board certification in plastic surgery. With a strong interest in achieving more beautiful wounds and post-surgical healing, I conducted wound-healing research in mice at graduate school and earned my Ph.D. I then built on that experience to train in aesthetic medicine, performing and refining a large volume of cases at a facility specializing in periocular surgery, which brings me to today. I would be delighted to use the clinical and research experience I have cultivated to provide care that makes my patients happy. I value communication, so let us work together toward your image of beauty. I look forward to your visit.
