Our Practice

Welcome to the office of Dr. Eduardo Barroso. We are committed to helping our patients look and feel beautiful and confident every day of their lives.

We strive to provide our patients with the highest quality of care and our guarantee of personal attention at each step of the surgical process. From your first visit to your last post procedure check-up, you will experience a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere with a focus on patient education and thorough discussion so you can make well informed decisions.  Our goal is to formulate the best treatment plan that will help you reach your aesthetic needs with the most natural appearing outcomes.  We couple this experience with strictest standards of patient privacy and confidentiality.

Committed to patient education and a fully informed decision, all patient consultations and  evaluations are personally performed by Dr. Barroso with the primary goal of a thorough discussion of the realistic available surgical and non-surgical options.  All treatment plans are discussed in detail taking into account the patient’s needs and realistic goals.  Preoperative planning is done in an honest and unbiased manner and our reputation is built on natural results, a professional and safe surgical experience with attention to every detail, and a comfortable and safe post operative recovery.  For international or out of town patients, we also offer online video conferencing with Dr. Barroso to create an appropriate treatment plan prior to arrival in the country followed by a face to face consultation in the office prior to surgery.

Plastic surgery should be a rewarding experience and we strive to ensure that our patients are satisfied with our care from start to finish. We encourage you ask yourself and Dr. Barroso the following questions:
