Dr. Alexa Franco, MD, Raleigh, NC | Ear, Nose & Throat Doctor

About Dr. Alexa Franco

As a fellowship-trained facial plastic surgeon, I perform aesthetic surgery of the face and neck. My particular expertise is in rhinoplasty and facial rejuvenation procedures, including face and neck lifts, upper and lower eyelid surgery, fat grafting, Botox, and fillers. I also perform surgeries for functional reasons, including nasal obstruction, nasal bone fractures, and acquired facial deformities from trauma or cancer. My goal is to provide natural, long-lasting results and for my patients to feel confident and like the best version of themselves. I believe it’s important to listen to what the patient wants and truly hear them to achieve a successful outcome tailored to the patient, not a cookie-cutter result. My favorite part of my work is seeing the effect my treatment has on a patient's confidence and quality of life.
