The American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (ABFPRS) was established in 1986 to improve the quality of medical and surgical treatment available to the public by examining for professional expertise in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. To carry out this mission, the Board has established a mechanism for the education, qualification, training, review, and certification of surgeons specializing in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. The ABFPRS credential signifies that a surgeon has completed an approved residency in one of the two surgical specialties that include identifiable training in all aspects of facial plastic, is double boarded, having earned prior certification in one of those specialties through the American Board of Medical Specialties or the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons in Canada, has successfully completed a two-day examination, has submitted for peer-review an acceptable record of at least two years’ clinical experience, including operative reports of a minimum 100 facial plastic surgeries, and holds proper licensure and subscribes to the ABFPRS Code of Ethics.
