Our certified, experienced, and caring plastic surgeons have helped thousands of people realize their dreams for a new body image.

With a strong commitment to personalized patient care, an outstanding staff, and superb on-site surgical facilities, Minneapolis Plastic Surgery, LTD. has distinguished itself in the field of plastic surgery. Located in the heart of Minnesota, it continues to be a leader in the five-state's largest metropolitan area with three accredited in-office operating rooms, full outpatient anesthesia services, the first plastic surgery on-site laser, skin and body care clinics (Carillon Clinic, Ltd. -- two metropolitan locations) offering a wide range of services to complement Minneapolis Plastic Surgery, LTD.’s core cosmetic surgery care, and a personal goal to provide the best cosmetic surgery experience possible to each and every patient.

Dr. Tholen and Dr. Gervais understand that patients have questions about their surgeries throughout the process. That's why we give patients personal, individualized, professional attention before, during, and after surgery.

As our doctors say, "Our patients can have complete confidence that they are getting the best care possible. We don't forget them once the surgery is completed."
