AuthorAbout Ted Eisenberg
I am a board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon, teacher, lecturer and author; my practice is based in Philadelphia, where I am the Director of the East Coast Center for Cosmetic Breast Surgery.
For the first 13 years of my career, I performed general plastic and reconstructive surgery from head to toe. Since 1999, I have focused my practice exclusively on cosmetic breast surgery. I have performed more than 5,000 breast augmentations, which made me the Guinness World Record holder for the most breast augmentations done in a lifetime.
Much of my earlier work involved the pioneering use of tissue expander implants. I used them to reconstruct a nose lost to cancer and a scalp shredded by shrapnel, and I rebuilt an eye socket damaged by radiation so that a young woman could have an artificial eye on her wedding day. I created the I.D.E.A.L.® Breast Lift, an innovative procedure that maximizes the lift and minimizes the scar, and I teach my cosmetic breast surgery techniques to doctors around the world.
With my wife, Joyce, I authored The Scoop On Breasts: A Plastic Surgeon Busts the Myths. In it, we answer hundreds of actual patient questions about breast development, breast health and breast implants. The book has won 10 national book awards in categories including women's health, humor, popular culture, and design.
I did a short stint as a stand-up comic but decided to keep my day job. An inductee in the International Knife Throwers Hall of Fame, I'm ranked as an expert knife thrower. My fellow throwers, who include my wife, nicknamed me “The Boobinator.”
