Focused on cosmetic and aesthetic surgery.
Dr. Papillion completed six years of general surgery residency at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, followed by a three-year fellowship in plastic and reconstructive surgery at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.
His training extended beyond those programs. He sought out private practice plastic surgeons, facial plastic surgeons, and ENT specialists to learn different techniques and perspectives. That breadth of experience informs his approach to each patient.
His surgical focus includes breast augmentation, facelift, rhinoplasty, abdominoplasty, and mommy makeover procedures.
