The Plastic Surgery Institute of Panama aims to provide the most sophisticated technology and solutions to their patients, and are committed to providing all the options and medical information available.

Surgeries are done at the Johns Hopkins Affiliated Punta Pacifica Hospital, San Fernando Hospital, or Centro Medico Paitilla Medical Center.

After finishing his training in Montreal, Dr. Picard moved to Miami where he worked for 10 years. There he founded and directed the Plastic Surgery Institute of Miami. Upon his return to Panama City, Panama in 2000, he founded the Panama Plastic Surgery Institute where he is currently it’s medical director. 


Always striving to kindle his knowledge and practice in the science of cosmetic treatments, Dr. Picard did fellowship training in Cosmetic Surgery, Microsurgery, Cranio and Maxillofacial surgery.

Currently, he is certified by both American Board of Plastic Surgery and is a Fellow of both the American College of Surgeons and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada in the section of Plastic Surgery.

 

He is a well-respected member of numerous international, national and local surgery organizations such as Operation Smile Panama, Healing the Children and the Rotary Club.

He periodically shares his experience and knowledge of plastic surgery practice with patients and fellow practitioners in the field through several scientific articles.
The doctor was also appointed a coveted post as the Society of Latin American Plastic Surgeons of North America as well as several hospital committees for surgical quality and safety assurance. Plastic surgery Panama encompasses both cosmetic and reconstructive surgery.

 

Cosmetic surgery is performed to reshape normal structures of the body in order to improve the patient's appearance and self-esteem. Cosmetic surgery is usually not covered by health insurance because it is elective. Reconstructive surgery is performed on abnormal structures of the body, caused by congenital defects, developmental abnormalities, trauma, infection, tumors or disease.


It is generally performed to improve functions, but may also be done to approximate a normal appearance. Reconstructive surgery is generally covered by most health insurance policies, although coverage for specific procedures and levels of coverage may vary greatly.


This symbol of excellence designates surgeons who are active members of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). They are certified in the specialty of plastic surgery by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and are dedicated to the highest standards of patient welfare and surgical excellence.
