Dr. Chet Mays

Impressed by his expertise and innovation in the field of plastic surgery, Dr. Chet Mays first met Dr. Bradley Calobrace as a third-year medical student when he participated in an elective course taught by the surgeon. He now joins his former mentor at CaloAesthetics, where both doctors share a vision of marrying the most advanced surgical techniques with the latest technology in aesthetic medicine. Providing the highest-quality care and bringing the best cosmetic surgical and nonsurgical techniques to his patients is paramount for Dr. Mays and his team. “Plastic surgery is more art than medicine, which is what initially drew me to the field many years ago,” he says. “At the end of the day, the patient’s surgical outcome is in my hands and I accept this privilege humbly and strive for success in everything I do.” Having a medispa, day spa and surgery center all in one facility allows him to deliver on his promise of providing first-class service for the mind, body and health needs of his patients.

1. My dream innovation
   A way to regenerate tissues that are bioidentical to a patient and will not be susceptible to rejection. This would eliminate the need for a donor site or living donors to treat some of the worst injuries and deformities
2. What are your most requested procedures?
   The Mommy Makeover with either a breast augmentation (or lift) and a tummy tuck are the most requested. Facial surgeries such as rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty and facelifts are the second most common. Body sculpting with liposuction and possible fat transfer to the face, breast or buttocks is a close third
3. How do you show patients you care post-treatment?
   Being available 24-7 via phone and also frequent post-op visits in my office are how I show my long-term commitment to patient care
4. What new services are you excited to offer?
   In the operating room we offer new ways to perform secondary cosmetic breast surgery. I see patients from all over the country who are seeking revision breast surgery. We are learning more and more about capsular contracture and the treatment regimens that will lower the recurrence risk
5. What trend do you think people still don’t understand?
   Facial cosmetic procedures still give patients some hesitation. Having a surgical result that is visible to everyone can be somewhat nerve racking. The concept of adding volume to the face along with tightening the skin can be very confusing to patients who think there is one magical procedure that gives a perfect result. It’s usually a combination of procedures, like laser skin resurfacing treatments and skin care products that yield the best cosmetic result
6. Three words that best describe me
   Hardworking, athletic, healthy
7. My motto
   Rejoice always!
8. How i would spend extra time in a day
   Listening to live music
