Dreams Becoming Reality

Birmingham Magazine, December 2005

For Birmingham plastic surgeon William Hedden, M.D., his dream of bringing a comprehensive plastic surgery practice to Alabama which would mesh his sculpting and medical talents has been realized. Dr. Hedden is guided by the philosophy that he has a responsibility to help his patients make informed decisions with regard to achieving both inner and outer beauty. "I must consider the person in their entirety. Today's plastic surgery patients run the spectrum of ages and backgrounds, but the majority have one thing in common - they are health-conscious individuals who simply want to look as good as they feel. It is the outside matching the inside for these individuals."

Cosmetic Surgery

This fine tuning can be achieved through a variety of surgical and nonsurgical procedures. An individual may choose simple injectables to minimize fine lines around the eyes, forehead and mouth. Other patients desire more dramatic results which can only be achieved through surgery. "No matter what their desires, I try to help them in making an educated decision with regard to all the available options."

Dr. Hedden is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and a fellow with the American College of Surgeons. He specializes in cosmetic surgery of the face, eyes and neck as well as Abdominoplasty (tummy tucks), Breast Augmentation, Breast Reduction, Liposuction, Otoplasty and Rhinoplasty.
