Who Dr. Luisa F. Alarcón Figueroa is and what she operates
Dr. Luisa F. Alarcón Figueroa is an oral and maxillofacial surgeon sub-specialised in facial plastic surgery. She trained for five years operating on the facial skeleton — head and neck oncology, orthognathic surgery, facial trauma and microsurgical reconstruction — as a resident at Hospital Universitari Vall d'Hebron, the reference centre for the specialty in Spain.
That base is what her aesthetic practice rests on: whoever masters the bone that holds the face up can work on the harmony of the whole rather than on an isolated feature. It is an uncommon profile among surgeons who operate on noses for aesthetic reasons, and it is the training facial feminization surgery comes from.
