The California Society of Facial Plastic Surgery is the state’s largest specialty association, representing facial plastic and reconstructive surgeons in the state.

The CSFPS is a recognized Medical Specialty Society of the California Medical Association and holds an official seat in the CMA House of Delegates. CSFPS members are board certified surgeons whose focus is surgery of the face, head, and neck. CSFPS members subscribe to a code of ethics.

Specialization in medicine has been one of the major enhancements in patient care over the last generation. CSFPS members not only have a precise focus in patient care but they also have had more comprehensive training in facial surgery than any other medical specialty.

All CSFPS members are board certified by a specialty board recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties. A majority are certified by the American Board of Otolaryngology, which includes facial plastic surgery. Others are certified in plastic surgery, ophthalmology, plastic surgery, and dermatology. The majority of members are board certified by the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.
