Meet The Surgeon

David Rosenberg, MD

Dr. David Rosenberg is an expert facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon, Board-Certified in both Facial Plastic Surgery and Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery. His surgical training included a fellowship sponsored by the American Academy of Facial Plastic Surgery, a residency in Otolaryngology at Manhattan Eye, Ear and Throat Hospital, and General Surgery at Lenox Hill Hospital, New York. He received his Medical Degree from Cornell University Medical College after earning his undergraduate degree from Cornell University.

Over the past two decades, Dr. Rosenberg has become internationally renowned for providing his patients with long-lasting, natural-appearing results with the shortest recovery times possible. Of note, his surgical approach to the face is the Deep Plane Facelift. In his hands, this operation is almost entirely muscular and redefines the jawline, neck, and cheeks from underneath the surface. This muscle suspension technique offers the distinct advantage of creating an age-appropriate facial rejuvenation and long-lasting result.

Our Philosophy Of Aging Beautifully

At our practice, we are dedicated to helping each patient feel like “the most beautiful version of themselves.” This philosophy is at the heart of everything we do. We believe in empowering both women and men to celebrate their appearances throughout their lives.

There’s nothing quite like waking up in the morning, looking in the mirror, and feeling great about your reflection. It’s a wonderful way to start each day!

Manhattan Facial Surgery Suites is comprised of four medical doctors who have a shared mission – to create the most natural and beautiful results possible with the shortest recovery time and no evidence of intervention. The office is home to Dr. David Rosenberg, Dr. Jessica Lattman, Dr. Benjamin Paul, and Dr. Andrew Timberlake Please visit the respective doctor’s websites to learn more about our team and their specialties.

Dr. Rosenberg’s success in facial plastic surgery paired with his education and experience has given him the reputation as one of the best facial plastic surgeons in the world.
