Brent J. Smith, MD

Facial Plastic Surgeon In Denver

Meet Dr. Smith

There’s a reason Dr. Brent J. Smith, MD, FACS, is Denver’s most trusted facial plastic surgeon. He’s a pioneer who goes the extra mile to give every client natural looking results. It’s something that Dr. Smith learned in childhood and has applied to all aspects of life—including an intentional approach to every surgery he’s performed over the last 30 years. 

“I’m a perfectionist,” Dr. Smith says. “When I mowed lawns, I was extra careful because I wanted the lines in the grass to be perfect. The same was true when I meticulously restored a Model A Ford in college. And when it comes to something as important as facial plastic surgery, I’m even more passionate about perfection.”

A legendary pathway to private practice

To perfect his craft—plastic surgery with a singular focus on the face—Dr. Smith earned more than a medical degree following undergrad at Stanford. He performed a high-profile ENT residency at University of Cincinnati, which had a reputation for excellence in the field, followed by a fellowship in facial plastic surgery with one of the country’s most prestigious sub-specialists. 

“That training was invaluable because it taught me procedures, as well as how to run a business and address patients’ needs and desires,” he says. “You are successful when the most important person is the patient. It’s not about what I want. I have to listen and hear them and see what they see.” 

Dr. Smith was also one of the first 50 in the country to be certified by the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, as well as the American Board of Otolaryngology for head and neck surgery.

Why sub-specialization in the face? 

“I never wanted to be a jack of all trades and master of none,” he says. “That means all of our instruments are specifically for the face. Our staff is focused only on the face. And the face is what I love. Isn’t it amazing that everyone can have two eyes, a nose, and a mouth, yet we all look so different when they’re are not that many variables?”

It’s Dr. Smith’s attention to detail, steady focus on patients, and ability to stay at the forefront of technology and innovations that have created one of Colorado’s top facial plastic surgery practices. “You don’t want to be the first—or last—to try something, but we’ve been out there as the lead dog for many techniques and procedures over the years,” he says. 

A beautiful legacy continues

But what Dr. Smith may be most remembered for is his unparalleled bedside manner, something untouchable and driven by a deep inner faith. 

“I believe true beauty comes from within. However, there are times when our perception of our physical appearance does not match the inner image we have of ourselves,” he says. “My goal is to help people find harmony. Facial plastic surgery allows us to bring the physical image in sync with the inner image and that is so satisfying.”
