The 10 Best Plastic Surgeons in Akron (2026)
Two institutions organize Akron's surgical map. Crystal Clinic Plastic Surgeons covers both ends of the metro from Embassy Parkway in Fairlawn and the Green campus on Turkeyfoot Lake Road, with Dr. Derek Cody's 244-review book and Dr. Lewis Diulus working across both. The independents fill in the west side: Plastic Surgeons of Akron under Dr. John Pedersen in Fairlawn, Dr. Richard Gentile's facial and laser center on White Pond Drive, Carp Cosmetic Surgery Center's fifteen-procedure menu in Uniontown, and Dr. Shayda Mirhaidari toward Canton. Rhinoplasty leads coverage at four practices, with the breast and body slate at three. The ten listings average 4.81 across 1,373 reviews. Verify American Board of Plastic Surgery certification and annual procedure volume.

How to vet a plastic surgeon
Three checks before any consultation deposit: certification by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (in Canada, Royal College certification, FRCSC), surgery performed in an accredited facility, and a direct answer to "how many of my exact procedure do you perform each year?" A reputable surgeon welcomes all three questions. Be cautious with heavy discounting and package deals: surgery is the wrong purchase to optimize on price.
