“I perform procedures with full conviction and nothing less.”
Dr. Zoran Potparic’s global perspective comes from training across the United States, Europe and England. His extensive experience contributes to his firm belief that “high-quality results are predicated on an in-depth understanding of reconstructive plastic surgery.” The Author of over 35 papers and chapters published in peer-review journals and books, Dr. Potparic continues to build a formidable reputation and credits his respected facial rejuvenation skills to his experience in reconstructive craniofacial surgery.
WHY DID YOU BECOME A PLASTIC SURGEON?

Whatever we do in plastic surgery is visible in one way or another, and that’s very exciting. You can never do the same surgery twice.

WHAT IS THE BEST ADVICE YOU’VE EVER RECEIVED?

You can never be satisfied with your results because that keeps you going on to do better.

WHAT FACTORS INFLUENCE YOUR RECOMMENDATIONS?

I always approach a patient through the eyes of safety. Their objectives determine my approach.

HOW DOES YOUR STAFF CONTRIBUTE TO GREATER PATIENT COMFORT?

All of my staff members really are “jewels,” based on their ceaseless devotion to extreme patient satisfaction.

WHAT ARE YOUR PROUDEST ACHIEVEMENTS?

I have had the privilege of working with leading plastic surgeons from both the USA and Europe in the course of my numerous fellowship trainings. I, myself, had the privilege to train many young plastic surgeons who now practice all over the world. The greatest achievement is to sit in on a meeting or educational course and learn from these fellows who are now recognized in their fields.

Inside Information
EDUCATING PATIENTS
Prior to scheduling a procedure, Dr. Potparic encourages his patients to obtain as much knowledge as possible before embarking on a treatment. With that said, Dr. Potparic makes sure to enlighten his patients about their procedures as a means to promote efficiency, enhance patient understanding and achieve safe results. “When people commit to a particular surgery without doing their homework, they are not informed enough to make an educated decision,” says Dr. Potparic. “This is when experience and honesty become just as important as surgical technicalities.” Ethical and principled, Dr. Potparic considers all possible scenarios, discussing the pros and cons of each particular aesthetic option. He sometimes even advises women to see two or three doctors prior to making a decision. “I love plastic surgery as much as I did when I first embarked on my career and don’t feel sacrifices or compromises should ever be made.”
