Dr. Jeffrey A. Ditesheim
I have always had a desire to help people. I was attracted to a career in medicine and surgery, in particular, because of the specialized skills a surgeon needs to master to help his patients. As a medical student at New York University, I was influenced by some of the world’s premier plastic surgeons. Plastic surgery was unique in being able to combine medical knowledge, surgical skills with innovation and creativity. Training in plastic surgery at Harvard, I learned that each patient would need a unique plan. The challenge was to draw upon what was known and to think of new solutions to achieve the very best results.
Since training, almost 16 years ago, I have changed many techniques to achieve better or more lasting anatomical changes with more predictable recovery. My passion has never changed. I want to help each person with a unique plan that will render a more positive body image and in doing so, enable a sense of greater personal empowerment.
I am happily married with three children and I enjoy golfing and skiing.

Our Surgical Center

Located in the Blakeney – Ballantyne area of south Charlotte, our surgical center provides a unique experience for patients to have cosmetic surgery in a very private, very safe setting. The operating facility is accredited by the AAAASF, a national certifying agency. Dr. Ditesheim designs a customized plan for each patient to achieve the best technical results and a predictable recovery, so to do so, he wants the intraoperative anesthesia and recovery to be as easy and predictable as possible. We choose to work with an anesthesiologist. Anesthesiologists are doctors specifically trained to manage any conditions while undergoing surgery and provide an environment that’s as safe as the leading hospitals in the country.
The nursing staff in the operating and recovery room are hand selected and each of the staff has extensive experience in their particular area. As an option Dr. Ditesheim has privileges at Charlotte area hospitals.
