At Plastic Surgery Specialists of Boca Raton, excellence is the foundation of every procedure performed by Dr. Rafael Cabrera. His aesthetic mission is simple: to enhance your natural beauty by subtly reversing the signs of aging. He is a renowned reconstructive surgeon specializing in skin cancers, including extensive basal and squamous cell reconstruction, Mohs repairs, and melanoma excisions, with and without sentinel lymph node biopsies. His state-of-the-art facility features three fully accredited operating suites, allowing most procedures to be performed safely under local anesthesia.
With nearly 30 years of experience, Dr. Cabrera understands that achieving the best aesthetic results doesn’t always require aggressive techniques. “The best way to attain a harmonious result is not to maximally use one tool but to employ a variety of methods for optimal outcomes.” He believes that anatomy dictates the procedure. His philosophy has earned him a longstanding reputation in the community, building trust and gratitude among countless patients.
He prides himself on creating natural-looking results that enhance rather than overly alter one’s appearance. “Ironically, achieving a subtle, natural look sometimes requires significant skill and effort,” he adds. Dr. Cabrera adopts a thoughtful, patient-focused approach. “If something isn’t right for you, I will recommend a more appropriate alternative,” he assures. He conducts thorough evaluations to determine the sources of signs of aging and stress, providing honest opinions on available options. Restoring a youthful appearance often requires a tailored plan that incorporates both surgical and non-surgical techniques such as fat grafting, platelet-rich plasma, and a wide array of skin treatments.
