He was invited to stay on as a member of the faculty, where he helped train other plastic surgeons and medical students.
He is called upon regularly as a legal and worldwide media expert in plastic surgery. An award-winning surgeon, he has been selected among America’s Top Doctors every year since 1998. He has served as a consultant to industry, an educator, an author, and an FDA scientific investigator.
Dr. Perez’ areas of special interest are facial rejuvenation, breast surgery and body contouring. He was invited to be the keynote speaker on facelifts and eyelid surgery at The Science and Art of Facial Makeover Congress in Brussels, and is a member of NOVO, the National Council of Leaders in Breast Aesthetics. He has been an FDA principal clinical investigator for studies in tummy tuck surgery and advanced ultrasonic liposuction.

Disclosure
Dr. Perez has served as a consultant, educator or FDA principal investigator with industry leaders including Mentor/Johnson & Johnson and Allergan Medical. He holds no direct financial interest in any of them.
