Lickstein Plastic Surgery was founded by Dr. David Lickstein with the mission of combining meticulous surgical skill with compassionate, personalized care. Dr. Lickstein along with Dr. Craig Forleiter, and their team of medical aesthetic professionals, are devoted to helping patients look and feel their best. We achieve natural-looking results by building upon each patient’s existing beauty in order to enhance, rather than radically change, their appearance. Our experienced surgeons offer a full range of cosmetic and reconstructive surgery for the face, body, and breasts, as well as minimally invasive non-surgical options. We never take a one-size-fits-all approach, as we believe that the best results are born from an in-depth discussion of individual patient goals, followed by a customized treatment plan.
In addition to our commitment to exceeding patient expectations, we are also focused on giving back to our community. The team at Lickstein Plastic Surgery has been a sponsor of many charitable events, including Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure South Florida to benefit breast cancer advocacy. Our practice is also a founding sponsor for local non-profit Impact the Palm Beaches and we regularly support charitable organizations chosen by our patients through our community partnership program.
When it comes to reconstruction, Dr. Lickstein is one of the few surgeons in Florida with extensive experience with state of the art single-stage implant reconstruction after mastectomy, having performed the procedure since 2007.
