Meet Dr. Baker
Matthew Baker, M.D.
Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon
Charleston, SC
Dr. Baker has been providing premier quality cosmetic surgery since 2005. Combining meticulous surgical technique with an eye for timeless aesthetic beauty and perfection, Dr. Baker has been committed to providing the very best in plastic surgery for his patients. Dr. Baker’s guiding principles of anatomical restoration and aesthetic rejuvenation has allowed him to reveal the underlying natural beauty of each patient with a customized, patient-specific surgical strategy. “I truly enjoy the process of getting to know my patient’s goals and desires, and then creating an individualized operative plan with them.” Of course, Dr. Baker’s easy-going personality and clear communication style has perfected this process over the years. “My goal is to always achieve the most beautiful and natural-looking results for every patient in the safest and most predictable way.” Dr. Baker has developed an excellent reputation for corrective cosmetic surgery of the breast and for body contouring after massive weight loss. Dr. Baker has more recently developed a real passion for facial rejuvenation surgery. “It has always been a privilege and an honor to participate in the patient’s journey and to restore a sense of confidence in my patients.”
After graduating from the prestigious New College of Florida, Dr. Baker was admitted to the Physician Scientist Program at the University of Miami in South Florida where he obtained both MD and PhD degrees. Upon graduating, Dr. Baker successfully matched in general surgery at Georgetown University Hospital in Washington, DC. Dr. Baker first became passionate about plastic surgery in the early 2000’s during his residency training in general surgery.It was there that he saw first-hand how amazing and inspiring plastic and reconstructive surgery can be, especially when restoring both function and beauty. “I suppose it was the combination of advanced surgical techniques, cutting-edge innovation and aesthetically beautiful results that I found so inspiring about plastic surgery.”
Drawing on this inspiration, and with encouragement of mentors like Dr. Chris Attinger and Dr. Scott Spear, Dr. Baker decided to apply for residency training in plastic surgery at Vanderbilt University Hospital in Nashville, Tennessee. During his residency in plastic surgery Dr. Baker met and worked with Dr. G Patrick Maxwell who became an influential mentor and a close friend. This ultimately led him to complete the aesthetic surgery fellowship with Dr. Maxwell focusing on advanced surgical techniques including surgery to correct unsatisfactory outcomes after cosmetic breast surgery.
