About Michele D. Koo, MD
Dr. Michele Koo, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, St. Louis, Missouri, has an exceptional eye for detail and is meticulous about achieving the perfect individualized procedure for you. Dr. Koo is passionate about making you look and feel your best. “I believe in customizing each individual procedure and putting you in balance aesthetically,” she says. “My love and desire is to help you achieve your cosmetic goals.” Dr. Koo personally takes the time to identify the problem areas in order to develop the optimal treatment plan for you. ""One of the most important things I’ve learned is that there’s not one surgery for everybody and there are many alternatives to surgery that may also be perfect for you,” explains Dr. Koo. “I pay attention to the details of the anatomy, extract exactly what the patient wants, then with my expertise, vision and artistry, I apply delicate surgical principles to achieve the best result possible."" Attracting patients from New York, Los Angeles and Chicago, her artistic expertise and meticulous attention to detail, as well as a deep understanding of each patient’s expectations, leads to aesthetic satisfaction. She has developed a style and grace that appeals not only to media professionals but also to those individuals with high expectations. Dr. Koo adds that her goal with any cosmetic or reconstructive procedure—whether liposuction, tummy tuck, facelift, eyelid lift, breast augmentation or breast reduction or BOTOX and Juvéderm injections—is to put patients into balanced proportion. “Balance is the operative word, whether it is one’s face, body or breasts,” says Dr. Koo. “Cosmetic surgery should yield a unique, unparalleled outcome while enhancing your life both physically and spiritually.” Since 1991, we have specialized in ambulatory cosmetic plastic surgery. We specialize in cosmetic breast surgery including breast augmentation, short-scar breast reduction, breast lifts after child bearing, and an innovative breast reduction procedure known as vertical mammaplasty. Facelifts, eyelids, nasal surgery, tummy tucks, and liposuction are also specialties.
