About Dr. Steven Chang
Dr. Steven Chang comes from a family of doctors. He is an Ivy League-educated surgeon with over 20 years of extensive experience performing complex surgeries.
Even in medical school, Dr. Chang was interested in both orthopedic and plastic surgery, which deal with restoring aesthetics and function. Initially, he chose to become an orthopedic surgeon and spent many years honing his skills in microsurgery, routinely performing some of the most complex, invasive, and delicate spinal procedures with excellent surgical outcomes.
Over the past several years, Dr. Chang has evolved his practice to cosmetic surgery, with a strong emphasis on aesthetics while ensuring equally important functional outcomes. It is true that while everyone sees the transformation in appearance from cosmetic surgery, only the patient has to live with any limitations in function due to the surgical procedures. Both appearance and function are very important.
For example, a breast augmentation procedure should provide excellent aesthetics without putting constraints on arm motion in daily physical activity or athletic participation.
Breast reduction procedures should result in a very desirable shape and volume while improving body biomechanics to alleviate the back pain, neck pain, and fatigue often associated with hypermastia.
A Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) should adequately enhance the shape, volume, and overall appearance of the buttocks without compromising proper biomechanics during walking and running, and most importantly, without putting at risk the underlying muscles, blood vessels, and nerves.
Liposuction is a surgical procedure designed to eliminate excess fat nearly anywhere on your body. It removes fat permanently, sculpting and defining your body with stunning results.
Tummy tuck surgery, also called abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from your abdomen and tighten weak or damaged abdominal muscles. The result is a flatter stomach, smoother curves, and a stronger core.
A Mommy Makeover is a cosmetic surgery that combines multiple procedures in one operation. In this customizable procedure, the surgeries the patient chooses generally aim to restore a woman’s body after pregnancy, childbirth, or aging.
Dr. Chang’s passion lies in restoring and enhancing patients’ appearances while ensuring that proper function is maintained and not compromised. Due to his many years of experience performing complex and invasive surgeries, he places a strong emphasis on patient safety in every aspect of treatment.
