While at the University of Florida, Richard Ellenbogen excelled
in both art and pre-med courses. He went on to graduate from the
University of Miami Medical School in 1968. He then completed general
surgery training in New York City. To satisfy an interest in plastic
surgical correction of birth defects, Dr. Ellenbogen traveled to
The Hague, Netherlands, where he served a fellowship at the Red
Cross Hospital.
When he returned to the United States, Dr. Ellenbogen served a fellowship
in hand surgery at the prestigious Hospital for Joint Diseases in
New York City. During his training in New York, he worked as an
assistant police surgeon in the South Bronx. Dr. Ellenbogen competed
his residency at the State University of New York in Plastic, Maxillofacial
and Reconstructive Surgery. This portrait artist-turned surgeon
found his medium and went on to become on of LA's top plastic surgeons.
Dr. Ellenbogen moved to Los Angeles in 1975, and in 1978 he became
board certified in Plastic Surgery. His personal medical suite was
designed with state of the art outpatient operating rooms and museum
quality antiques, which Dr. Ellenbogen refinished himself. Since
1980, his practice has been limited to cosmetic surgery, but Dr.
Ellenbogen still performs reconstructive birth defects surgery and
consults on cases involving complicated reconstructive surgery.
One of the most published and innovative plastic surgeons, Dr. Ellenbogen
has written textbooks and scientific journal articles on facelift,
eyelid surgery, forehead lift, breathing and cosmetic nasal surgery,
underarm breast enlargement, and liposuction techniques, as well
as research on silicone. Many of the techniques he has helped create
are used and referred to by plastic surgeons all over the world
today.

College of Surgeons, and a clinical instructor of Plastic Surgery
at the University of Southern California. Dr. Ellenbogen keeps current
by attending and lecturing at international conferences at least

benefit by having their self-image enhanced. Dr. Ellenbogen offers
his patients a good heart, a sense of humor, and an artist's eye.
