If I can do somethingspecial for someonethat they can’t dofor themselves,that’s what I shouldbe doing.

Philosophy

Regarded in his community as an accomplished plastic surgeon with an artistic eye, Dr. Michael A. Horn helps his patients enhance their physical appearance with safe, effective cosmetic surgery techniques. Although many practitioners may be adding to their menu of services, Dr. Horn believes the secret to his success has been honing his skills in a limited number of procedures. “You cannot train for a triathlon only one day a week and expect good results,” says Dr. Horn. He and his highly skilled and caring team also help patients maintain their results with nonsurgical treatments at his full-service medspa, the Skin Care Institute for Face, Breast and Body.

A Minute With

1
MOST MEMORABLE PATIENT REACTIONS
When satisfied patients say, “I’m glad I did it!”
2
HOW I WANT TO BE REMEMBERED
As having made a special difference
3
HOW I MAKE THE BEST FIRST IMPRESSION
Through former patient referrals or before-and-after photos; new patients will come in and say “I want to look like that!”
4
WHAT SETS MY PRACTICE APART
My team members have all had plastic surgery, so I match my patients that are having the same procedure with one of my “internal ambassadors,” giving them a support network to call on and a peer to identify with
5
WHAT I CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT
My zest for life
6
THE FUTURE OF MY FIELD
We are seeing a surge in more noninvasive body contouring treatments like UltraShape® and VelaShape®; patients who are reasonably in shape will have more options to treat stubborn areas with no pain, no recovery, no downtime and no bruises
7
MY PATIENT CARE PHILOSOPHY
We focus on convenience, availability, experience and support; we offer Saturday and evening hours in order to accommodate our busier patients, I also perform all surgeries myself rather than expand my practice and bring on another plastic surgeon; in turn I receive more patient ambassadors willing to testify about their positive experience
8
MY MOTTO
World-class care in a world-class city
