Face | Breast | Body The mission of H/K/B? Bill G. Kleban, M.D.

The H/K/B Way is a collaborative effort between all of our physicians and staff. Together, we are committed to providing our patients with state-of-the-art procedures, best-in-class surgical technology, and the most advanced methods for ensuring not just optimal results, but also optimal recovery periods. To provide the best possible experience of cosmetic surgery to each of our patients, whether they’re seeking a tummy tuck, a facelift, a breast augmentation, or simply an injectable filler. Our surgeons have won a variety of awards, have conducted research, and are extensively published in the field. We invite you to view each physician’s biography to learn more about their unique credentials, expertise and more about them as a person. H/K/B is proudly associated with a number of professional organizations with stringent membership requirements, such as the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, and the North Carolina Society of Plastic Surgeons. Our surgeons perform most procedures at our advanced, accredited surgical facilities. Our surgical facility accreditations include Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC), and The American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Services Facilities (AAAASF), the Gold Standard for safety in outpatient surgery facilities, requiring conformation to strict national standards for equipment, surgeon and staff credentials, and operating room safety.

Your summer body starts in the fall… 🍂☀️

There’s a reason fall and winter are some of the most popular seasons for surgery! Cooler weather makes compression garments a little more comfortable, cozy days at home make downtime easier, and you’ll have more time to focus on recovery before summer plans roll around. ✨

The best time for surgery? Whenever it works best for YOU! But if summer is your goal, now might be the perfect time to start planning. 🤍

Toe shortening, toe fat grafting, and… elf ears? 👀 The requests get creative, but knowing when to say “that’s outside my expertise” is part of the job.

An honest conversation will always come first. 🎙️ Podcast linked in our bio 🤭

25 YEARS OF TRAINING THE NEXT GENERATION. 🎓 FELLOWSHIP APPLICATIONS ARE NOW OPEN!

Apply by emailing [email protected] and [email protected] your CV and interest.

✨

In 2001, Dr. Joseph Hunstad started an aesthetic surgery fellowship built around a simple but powerful idea: share our knowledge, teach the next generation, and continue advancing the field of aesthetic plastic surgery.

25 years later, that legacy is stronger than ever.

The H/K/B Aesthetic Surgery Fellowship offers an incredibly diverse, high-volume experience with exposure to the full spectrum of modern aesthetics. From facial rejuvenation and rhinoplasty to primary and complex secondary breast surgery, explant surgery, massive-weight-loss reconstruction, advanced body contouring, high-definition liposculpture, energy-based technologies and more.

But we believe aesthetic education extends far beyond the operating room.

Our fellows experience the entire aesthetic ecosystem… including nonsurgical aesthetics, Med Spa, emerging technologies, research, patient experience, practice development, wellness and longevity.

Perhaps what makes us proudest is seeing that legacy come full circle.

Dr. Shawna Kleban completed the H/K/B fellowship in 2021. Today, she is one of our surgeons and helps lead the fellowship—teaching and mentoring the next generation just as she was once mentored herself.

That is what Health. Knowledge. Beauty. is all about.

Different surgeons. Different perspectives. Tremendous surgical exposure. One shared commitment to advancing our specialty.

25 years of education.
25 years of innovation.
25 years of paying it forward.

And we are just getting started.
