More Doctor Jacono Reviews


Doctor Jacono is committed to helping those less fortunate who have suffered facial disfigurement but do not have access to plastic surgery care. Domestically he performs pro-bono surgery on victims of domestic violence and traumatic events who have facial injuries and do not have the means to have facial plastic surgery. Internationally, he travels all over the world to perform reconstructive plastic surgery on individuals who have been disfigured by birth defects, trauma, war, and cancer,

Early in his career, Dr. Jacono was deeply moved by a patient who was a tragic victim of domestic violence. It inspired him to rally around this silent epidemic and put forth his medical skills to improve the lives of those affected. He has been National Chairman of “FACE TO FACE” Committee for the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons (AAFPRS). “FACE TO FACE” is a national project offering pro bono consultation and surgery to victims of domestic violence. HE is now their Senior Advisor. He has performed pro-bono surgery on dozens of women who are survivors. Dr. Jacono’s commitment to the cause goes well beyond the operating room. For the past nine years, he has chaired ABOUT FACE, an annual benefit for survivors of domestic violence. His efforts have been recognized by U.S. Congresswoman Carolyn McCarthy and by the Center for the Women of New York, for his contributions to women’s welfare.

Television Networks Discovery Fit & Health and OWN became aware of Dr. Jacono’s charitable work in 2010, and approached him with the opportunity to chronicle the touching stories of domestic violence survivors in a new television show. FACING TRAUMA premiered in October 2011, and follows the harrowing stories of women who have been left disfigured from violent circumstances, as they struggle to reconstruct their lives both physically and emotionally. From the initial consultation to the final reveal, FACING TRAUMA follows Dr. Jacono and his team as they work to heal both the internal and external scars of victims.

Dr. Jacono also extends his philanthropy internationally as a volunteer surgeon for “BEYOND OUR BORDERS,” an organization that brings underprivileged children from third world countries to the United States for surgery to repair disfigurement due to cancer, trauma, and birth defects. He also serves as a volunteer for “HEALING THE CHILDREN,” which coordinates mission trips to third world countries to children receive surgeries unavailable to them due to a lack of medical and financial resources. He has been on over six missions. His most recent mission took him to Colombia, where he performed operations on children with cleft lips and cleft palates. He will continue to travel back to Colombia and also go to Thailand. His son is raising money for these missions.

Individual Stories…

Below are photos of children who were born with a cleft lip and palate that Dr. Jacono performed reparative surgery on. This birth defect which occurs during the first three months of pregnancy makes it very difficult for children to eat, drink, speak, and in some cases breathe.

During many of his missions trips, Dr. Jacono performs microtia surgeries on children who were born without one ear or in some cases both ears. For these microtia cases, Dr Jacono surgically creates a new ear using rib cartilage from the patient. The end results allow the child to look like they were born with both ears at birth.

Mission Statement

Doctor Jacono’s desire to become a facial plastic surgeon was solidified in grade school. There was a girl on his school bus route who was born with a cleft lip and palate deformity. Unfortunately, whenever she spoke, air and words escaped through her nose. Kids teased her and were cruel, and nobody would sit next to her on the bus, so he decided to sit with her. One day, the girl had plastic surgery and returned to school with her face repaired. Suddenly, classmates saw her face instead of her deformity and immediately treated her normally. It was at that moment that Doctor Jacono knew he wanted to fix people’s faces and change their lives. This is why he has gone on over twenty plastic surgery missions to poor countries around the world and provided free cleft lip and surgery for birth defects to over 500 children.

Because of this experience in his childhood, Doctor Jacono understands that one of our basic needs as human beings is to feel confident about our appearance. It’s is Doctor Jacono’s passion to help his patients achieve their facial aesthetic goals, creating natural appearing results to either enhance their beauty and proportion or rejuvenate their aging appearance. He is a world-renowned leader in the field of facial plastic surgery and only performs surgery on the face, not the body. He has innovated many facelift, eyelid lift, and rhinoplasty surgical techniques, publishing in leading peer reviewed literature and lecturing at plastic surgery conferences all over the world. He is committed to sharing what he has learned teaching surgeons from around the world.

His approach is to maintain your uniqueness and facial identity; it is still you just better. To do this he uses a customized, bespoke approach to each patient employing the most minimally invasive, innovative, and cutting-edge technology. Doctor Jacono has never performed the same procedure on any two of the thousands of patients he has treated. He is committed to providing his surgical expertise in a caring, supportive environment with a professional staff that has you as their focus and concern.
