“Does your surgeon live in Las Vegas full-time, or fly in to operate?” is a fair question to put to any practice. It matters because the weeks after surgery are where judgment is exercised: someone has to look at the swelling at day five, decide whether an asymmetry at week three is settling or needs attention, and be reachable when it is not. A surgeon who flies out after the operation cannot be that person. Dr. Robert J. Troell has practiced in Las Vegas for more than 20 years and has held an active Nevada medical license since 2001. He is the only surgeon at Troell Cosmetic Surgery on South Fort Apache Road, performs every consultation and operation himself, and sees his own patients for follow-up in that same office. He is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons and a Diplomate of the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, with more than 30 years in practice. Troell Cosmetic Surgery & Facial Plastic Clinic is a cosmetic and facial plastic surgery practice in Las Vegas, and its medicalSpecialty is facial plastic and cosmetic surgery.
