Dr. Andrew A. Jacono, MD, FACS, is a New York City–based, double board-certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon recognized internationally for facial rejuvenation, rhinoplasty, and revision surgery. He is the director of the New York Center for Facial Plastic & Laser Surgery, with a Park Avenue practice in Manhattan and an additional location serving Long Island. His work focuses exclusively on the face and neck, combining anatomical analysis, individualized surgical planning, advanced deep-plane techniques, and careful preservation of each patient’s identity. He is certified by the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and the American Board of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery.
Dr. Jacono earned a bachelor’s degree in chemistry and philosophy from Muhlenberg College before receiving his medical degree from Albert Einstein College of Medicine. He completed a general-surgery internship at Saint Vincent’s Hospital and Medical Center in New York, followed by residency training in otolaryngology–head and neck surgery at the New York Eye and Ear Infirmary, where he served as Administrative Chief Resident. He subsequently completed an American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery fellowship at the University of Rochester. This combination of head-and-neck surgery, reconstructive training, aesthetic fellowship experience, and detailed knowledge of facial anatomy established the foundation for his specialized facial-plastic-surgery practice.
In addition to private practice, Dr. Jacono holds academic and hospital leadership responsibilities. Albert Einstein College of Medicine identifies him as a Clinical Associate Professor in its Department of Otorhinolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery. His professional biography also lists him as Section Head of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at North Shore University Hospital and as a fellowship director involved in educating advanced facial-plastic-surgery trainees. His publicly listed hospital associations include Lenox Hill Hospital, Manhattan Eye, Ear and Throat Hospital, New York Eye and Ear Infirmary, North Shore University Hospital, and Long Island Jewish Medical Center. He is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons and is professionally associated with the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.
Dr. Jacono has contributed extensively to the scientific and educational literature surrounding facial rejuvenation. His professional biography reports more than 50 peer-reviewed articles addressing subjects such as facelifting, eyelid surgery, rhinoplasty, brow lifting, facial anatomy, lip enhancement, and face-and-neck rejuvenation. He is particularly associated with extended deep-plane facelift methods designed to reposition deeper facial structures while avoiding an excessively tight or visibly operated appearance. He has presented research, delivered lectures, and participated in surgical education at universities, medical meetings, and international symposiums. He is also the author of professional and consumer books, including The Park Avenue Face and The Art and Science of Extended Deep Plane Facelifting.
A defining feature of Dr. Jacono’s approach is the development of a customized plan that respects the patient’s existing facial identity, anatomy, age, gender, and aesthetic priorities. Instead of applying one standard operation to every patient, his practice describes a tailored approach intended to restore facial position, proportion, and definition while maintaining recognizable and natural-looking characteristics. This philosophy is especially relevant in deep-plane facelift, revision facelift, rhinoplasty, revision rhinoplasty, and eyelid procedures, where small anatomical differences can significantly affect balance and long-term appearance. His reconstructive work also includes treatment of congenital differences, facial trauma, skin-cancer defects, facial paralysis, and other conditions affecting facial form or function. Dr. Jacono has additionally participated in charitable surgical missions providing cleft-lip, cleft-palate, and facial reconstruction for children and survivors of domestic violence.
