Professional background
Dr. King is a fellowship-trained Facial Plastic Surgeon and board-certified Otolaryngologist. After General Surgery internship at Mayo Clinic in Minnesota (2004-2005) followed by ENT residency at the University of Iowa (2005-2009), she practiced general ENT in North Adams, MA, for 2 years from 2009-2011.
However, due to a persistent love of plastic surgery, she pursued and was accepted to a fellowship by the AAFPRS-accredited prestigious Glasgold Group in Highland Park, New Jersey. Having just completed her fellowship in Facial Plastic Surgery, she comes now to Northampton to focus her practice on the treatment of the cosmetic and reconstructive needs of the face while continuing to offer basic ENT care to the community.
As a Facial Plastic Surgeon, she will be working alongside of Dr. William Truswell at the Aesthetic Laser & Cosmetic Surgery Center a 61 Locust Street.
In regard to Facial Plastics, her greatest interests are the treatment of the aging face and skin (facelifts, eyelid surgery, skin resurfacing), volume restoration by the cutting-edge use of fat transfer and other injectable fillers, Botox, correction of nasal disharmony rhinoplasty (including revision rhinoplasty), ear pinning (otoplasty), newborn ear molding (a non-surgical correction of ear deformity), chin implants (mentoplasty), and tattoo removal. Furthermore, she will offer reconstructive plastic procedures such as reconstruction of a defect after skin cancer removal, scar revision, and certain facial trauma corrections.
She and her partner of 15 years, Shea King, have a three year old daughter, Savannah. They are pleased to establish themselves as new members of this exciting and diverse community and look forward to a lifetime of the rich quality-of-life that the Pioneer Valley can provide.
