Austin Smiles restores smiles and provides healthier lives through reconstructive plastic surgery for children in Central Texas and beyond who have complex birth defects.

Description

Austin Smiles provides reconstructive plastic surgery, primarly cleft lip and palate repairs, to the children of Austin, a 10-county surrounding area and Latin America. After a more than a decade of service, the Austin Smiles plastic surgeons have performed hundreds of opperations annually at Children's Hospital of Austin. The corrective surgery provided by thses dedicated plastic surgeons helps to restore and normalize the speach, hearing, eating and breathing functions of amny children so adversely and painfully affected by their conditions. Best of all, a family's inability to pay does not influence the quality or availability of care so generously provided by the Austin Smiles' surgeons.
