When deciding to undergo nose surgery, choosing a top rhinoplasty surgeon with the necessary training, experience, and skill is essential for obtaining the best rhinoplasty results. Dr. Cochran was recently selected as one of the "Best Doctors in Dallas" for 2008 by D Magazine.
C. Spencer Cochran, MD is a highly-respected rhinoplasty surgeon who was hand-selected by Dr. Gunter for his knowledge and skill in all aspects of nasal surgery. Like Dr. Gunter, rhinoplasty is his passion and area of expertise. Board Certified by the American Board of Otolaryngology and a member of both The Rhinoplasty Society and the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Dr. Cochran combines time-tested rhinoplasty techniques with the most cutting-edge innovations available in nasal surgery to provide the best rhinoplasty results. His focused background and surgical experience have allowed him to become a highly-skilled rhinoplasty specialist.
"Rhinoplasty intrigues me because of its inherent degree of difficulty. To be extraordinary, you must develop a keen aesthetic eye, a deep understanding of anatomy, and incredible technical proficiency. You must also commit to it as a specialty because rhinoplasty is challenging to do well if you are not doing it all the time."
Rhinoplasty differs from other cosmetic plastic surgery procedures in that it involves correcting both form and function. "Striking the perfect balance between meeting a patient’s aesthetic goals and correcting a functional problem is very important - a great looking nose must also work well. I never settle for anything less than my personal best. This is the only thing I do, and it will be done right.”
Dr. C. Spencer Cochran received his medical degree from the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, where he graduated at the top of his class. Dr. Cochran’s interest in rhinoplasty led him to specialize in nasal surgery at the world-renowned University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas. During his training, he served as Chief Resident of the Department of Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery where he continues to teach rhinoplasty techniques to other surgeons as a Clinical Assistant Professor.
During his surgical training, Dr. Cochran studied the art of rhinoplasty while observing and assisting Dr. Gunter in surgery. Dr. Cochran’s enthusiasm and innate talent for rhinoplasty impressed Dr. Gunter, who asked Dr. Cochran to join his practice. “We feel very fortunate to have Dr. Cochran at the Gunter Center for Aesthetics & Cosmetic Surgery. He is a rising star in the field of nasal surgery. In addition to rhinoplasty, Dr. Cochran adds another dimension to our team by bringing significant experience in endoscopic sinus surgery and a special interest in correcting nasal airway obstruction.”
Dr. Cochran serves two roles at the Gunter Center for Aesthetics & Cosmetic Surgery. In addition to maintaining his own busy practice, he continues to assist Dr. Gunter in surgery with both his primary and secondary rhinoplasty patients. “My patients truly benefit from all I have learned from Dr. Gunter. His meticulous attention to detail is remarkable. Having worked beside him over the past 5 years has made me a better doctor.”
Dr. Cochran believes in giving every patient the luxury of time. During each in-person consultation, Dr. Cochran carefully explains what patients can expect before, during, and after surgery. Because each individual possesses unique facial characteristics, Dr. Cochran designs a specific surgery for each patient. "The nose should never detract from the face or become a focal point. It is a unique operation every time.”
Dr. C. Spencer Cochran has become one of the most respected rhinoplasty surgeons in the nation thanks to his experience, training, and skill.
