About Michael T. Rossi, MD

Dr. Michael Rossi is a true artist in the field of cosmetic plastic surgery. His naturally beautiful surgical and injectable results, strict adherence to the latest safety measures, and unmatched compassion for his patients were recognized by the readers of the prestigious Ranch & Coast Magazine as he was voted “Best San Diego Plastic Surgeon” for 2019. The moment you are first greeted by Dr. Rossi, his warmth, charisma and genuine nature put you at ease. It is apparent from your first interaction that he possesses a keen eye for detail and is driven by a desire to help his patients achieve their aesthetic goals and become the best version of themselves. He was born into a large, tight-knit medical family in the Midwest, which played a major role in the man and physician he is today. He takes great pride in treating every patient he encounters like family and listens to their needs to help them achieve their ideal self. Dr. Rossi is dedicated to nutrition, health and physical fitness. He has a passion for using his artistic surgical skillset to deliver gorgeous natural results, but goes the extra mile by helping patients maintain their flattering results through tailored diet and exercise plans. He truly understands the role “feeling beautiful” plays in life happiness and strives to create “mind-body balance” for every patient. A major driving force for Dr. Rossi is witnessing the joy and self-confidence his patients display at the end of their body or face enhancement journeys. Dr. Rossi was born in Chicago and grew up in central Illinois where he attended the University of Illinois. He remained in his home state to pursue his medical education followed by six years of general surgery training at the University of Illinois College of Medicine and the University of Illinois Chicago MGH, respectively. As he progressed through his intense surgical training, it became obvious his outgoing personality, keen attention to detail, advanced surgical skill, innovative style and passion for boosting patients’ confidence made him a perfect fit for the field of plastic surgery. After completion of general surgery training, Dr. Rossi followed his passion and completed an additional plastic surgery residency at the University of Texas, obtaining world class training and tutelage at multiple renowned institutions (MD Anderson Cancer Center, Memorial Hermann Medical Center, and St. Joseph’s Medical Center). Southern California is the perfect fit for Dr. Rossi’s surgical ability and an ideal location for him and his beautiful wife, Lindsey to raise their three adorable children. Together they are active community members and support multiple philanthropic organizations. Dr. Rossi has built a stellar reputation in Southern California as a highly skilled artist in the field of cosmetic plastic surgery and a compassionate physician who works tirelessly to ensure a flawless “patient experience”. He listens intently, he cares deeply, and his passion for his patients is genuine, refreshing and undeniably unique in the field. As a result, individuals have flown from all over the country to seek his services. Earning a patient’s trust is a privilege he takes very seriously and his desire to positively affect lives is unwavering.
