Dr. Oz The Good Life - Charitable Surgery

Your Doctor, Our Hero

Dr. Jacono was featured in Dr. OZ The Good Life magazine in an article discussing how he uses his personal time to visit the poorest reaches of the globe to perform pro bono, life changing miracle surgeries on those who are less fortunate.

“Changing a face can change a life,” says 44-year-old New York City Plastic Surgeon, Andrew Jacono, M.D.

It was a third-grade classmate with a cleft lip who inspired Andrew Jacono to become a doctor. “Before she had corrective surgery, no one would sit next to her on the bus,” he recalls. “After, everyone wanted to. I wanted to help people that way.” And over the years, he has: Largely through medical missions with the Help Us Give Smiles (HUGS) Foundation, he’s operated on more than 500 children abroad who were suffering from facial deformities like cleft palates. “In the United States, most of these kids would get surgery and lead normal happy lives,” he says. “But in countries where even basic health care isn’t guaranteed, it can mean being socially rejected. Treatment offers a fresh start.” On a March trip to Quito, Ecuador, Jacono worked on kids born with microtia, a birth defect that causes abnormally developed ears. Afterward, a father thanked him. “He explained he knew firsthand how life altering the operation can be; He’d been born with the same problem, and years ago another HUGS doctor help him,” Jacono says. “I’m a dad myself. If I can do that just by giving up a few days, why wouldn’t I?”

Instagram post 18121584964027025 A little late to the party but made it to @artbasel today and found a promising piece of art from Sue Williams for my new apartment.  I was introduced to her work from my fiancé @cestmoijesse and fell immediately in love with her work !  Her work explores issues surrounding gender and the body.  Very inspired and loving the warm weather during the cold months back at home.  I love to draw and paint and I plan on taking more time for it this upcoming new year!  #iloveart #supportthearts #artislife #plasticsurgeryisart #plasticsurgeonnyc #plasticsurgerynyc #artbaselmiami #suewilliams #suewilliamsartist

Instagram post 17858346307627477 I am at @artbasel in Miami and today one of my patients came in for a routine post-operative visit this week and I think her result is beautiful art!!! Many of my patients as they approach their early forties want to rejuvenate their appearance and do not want to wait till they get older and want to reset a youthful appearance for the next 10 plus years!! On this beautiful woman I performed a #deepplanefacelift fir drooping cheeks #nasolabialfolds and early #jowling, and a lower eyelid #blepharoplasty and #temporallift to open and rejuvenate her eyes .  She always hated her dropping #nasaltip and #dirsalhump on her bridge so I performed a #closedrhinoplasty to balance and perfect her look!  As you can see with her hair pulled back you cannot see any scars!!! You can wear your hair up in a #ponytail after surgery!!! She is an anesthesiologist so I am always humbled and honored when someone in medicine trusts me with their face!! She is only a few months post op but looking so beautiful and rejuvenated already !!! I am grateful she trusted me with her face at such a young age .  #facelift can rejuvenate like injectable fillers and Botox cannot!!! plasticsurgerybeforeandafter #faceliftbeforeandafter #faceliftnyc #faceliftdubai #faceliftspecialist #faceliftexpert #plasticsurgerynyc #plasticsurgeon #plasticsurgeonnyc #extendeddeepplanefacelift #minifacelift #eyeliftsurgery #faceliftnyc #rhinoplastynyc

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.
