Dr. Sean Boutros, M.D., F.A.C.S.

“Excellence in treatment with

compassion of care,” is the mission
statement of Dr. Sean Boutros. He
founded Houston Plastic and
Craniofacial Surgery to provide a
vehicle for state of the art cosmetic
and reconstructive surgery for
patients in Houston and around the
world. Dr. Boutros aims to provide
the best possible care to all of his
patients with the most current
advancements in plastic surgery. He
also aspires to provide services to
children with facial disfigurements
regardless of financial resources.

Dr. Boutros grew up in Houston. He

attended Texas A&M University.
After only two years, he was
accepted to Baylor College of
Medicine where he graduated with
honors. At Baylor, he was inducted
into Alpha Omega Alpha, the
medical honor society for the top 5
percent of graduating doctors. He
trained in plastic surgery at the
world-renowned Institute for
Reconstructive Plastic Surgery at New York University. There he studied under many of
the world leaders in plastic surgery. Afterwards, he was accepted as the craniofacial
fellow under Dr. Joseph McCarthy, know as a father of craniofacial surgery.
Additionally, Dr. Boutros spent time in Paris, France training under the world-renowned
Ear Reconstruction specialist Dr. Françoise Firmin. He also had the distinct privilege of
being mentored by rhinoplasty specialist, Dr. Nicholas Tabbal.

Dr. Boutros specializes in a wide range of advanced plastic surgeries including cosmetic,
reconstructive, and craniofacial procedures. Dr. Boutros offers numerous procedures, but
is especially dedicated to rhinoplasty, secondary rhinoplasty, facial rejuvenation surgery,
ear reconstruction, breast reconstruction, cleft lip and palate reconstruction, and
craniofacial surgery. His natural looking results and genuine concern for each patient
have made him the one of the go-to plastic surgeon in Houston. Dr. Boutros has also
received recognitions for his skill and has been asked to lecture about rhinoplasty, ear
reconstruction, facial rejuvenation, and craniofacial surgery not only at numerous
national meetings and conferences, but also in venues around the world.
 The international respect
that Dr. Boutros has earned
as a surgeon allows him
travel the world teaching
surgeons about all aspects
of plastic and
reconstructive surgery. Dr.
Boutros has authored over
25 peer-reviewed articles
along with nine book
chapters. He also was the
editor of the significant and
best-selling Plastic Surgery
text, Current Therapy in
Plastic Surgery. He served
as the anatomist for the widely known book, Surgical Anatomy of the Orbit. Dr. Boutros’
success has afforded him with the opportunity to lead numerous international mission
trips, providing care to children with craniofacial deformities. He has established
Houston Foundation for Facial Reconstruction to enable him to care for children
without access to medical care both here in Houston and abroad. Dr. Boutros has been
publicly recognized for the work he has done including his heroic efforts treating victims
in New York City on September 11, 2001, his international plastic surgery relief work,
and his work here in Houston on children who need plastic surgery but have no access to
care.

In his own words, Dr. Boutros chose to be a plastic surgeon because, “plastic,
reconstructive, and craniofacial surgery lets me apply principles and techniques to give
people a new start in life.” The passion, expertise, and dedication of Dr. Boutros assure
that patients will leave Houston Plastic and Craniofacial Surgery gratified. Dr. Boutros
was recognized as one of Houston's Top Docs.
