Justin Gillenwater, MD, MS, takes a long-term approach to burn care, burn reconstruction, wound healing and scar management, following each patient from the initial trauma through the healing process. He is board certified in both surgical critical care, and plastic and reconstruction surgery.
Dr. Gillenwater brings his experience as one of the world’s top experts in treating severe scarring. His research focuses on everything from laser scar management and improving scars to wound healing and new technology for assessing burns and scars.
Dr. Gillenwater grew up on a farm in Kentucky and now loves the Southern California beaches, where he enjoys playing rugby.
“I believe in a patient-first approach with individualized care according to the goals of the patient. I work with my patients to create a scar management plan that focuses on reaching their goals.
Most important are communication and working together. To best manage my patients and their scars, I have to understand why their scars bother them and have a good conversation about what treatments would work for their scars and their life.”
