About Sumner A. Slavin

Dr. Sumner A. Slavin, MD, is an award-winning, board-certified plastic surgeon and the leader of Chestnut Hill Plastic & Aesthetic Surgery Associates in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts. He earned his MD from the University of Vermont College of Medicine (1973) and completed his surgical training at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and NYU Langone Medical Center. He is an Associate Professor of Surgery at Harvard Medical School and is affiliated with Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. With over 50 years of experience, he is an international figure in both reconstructive and cosmetic plastic surgery, having served as visiting professor at the Royal College of Surgeons in England and the Royal Australian Plastic Surgical Society. He received the Jubilee Medal of the Swedish Plastic Surgical Society for a lifetime of accomplishment in breast reconstruction. He has been named one of "The Best Doctors in America" by his peers and recognized by Boston Magazine as one of the city's "Top Doctors" for more than 30 consecutive years. He has served as Associate Editor for the Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. Clients describe him as "a true artist" who "took 10+ years off my face and it looks natural" and "a perfectionist" whose "work is beautiful." One patient who had seven prior surgeries with other top Boston doctors said he "by far and away produced the best results" and wished she had found him years earlier. He specializes in facelifts, rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, breast augmentation, breast reconstruction, tummy tucks, body contouring, CoolSculpting, Botox, and dermal fillers.
