Brief Intro

Scott Walen, MD, is a double board-certified, assistant professor in the division of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck surgery, and specializes in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. He comes to us from Saint Louis University, where he served as the director of facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, and residency program director. Dr. Walen was born and raised in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. He went on to complete his otolaryngology-head and neck surgery residency at the University of Calgary in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. He then pursued an American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS) fellowship at Washington University in St. Louis, then followed that with additional head and neck reconstruction training at Saint Louis University. After fellowship training, he obtained board certification from the American Board of Facial and Reconstructive Surgery (ABFPRS), and is currently in his second year as a board examiner. He specializes in both aesthetic/cosmetic, and reconstructive surgery of the face, head, and neck. Dr. Walen believes in the importance of aesthetic self-esteem to every patient’s overall health and well-being. He provides the full range of cosmetic procedures from facial lesion removals, scar revisions, facial rejuvenation injectables (neuromodulators, dermal fillers), laser resurfacing/facial peels, dermabrasion, facelifting, brow/eyelid lifting, and nasal reshaping (rhinoplasty). In addition, Dr. Walen is pleased to bring hair restoration procedures including platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections, and follicular unit transplantations (hair transplant), to the practice. Additional procedures can be found on the Penn State facial plastic and reconstructive surgery website. In addition to cosmetic procedures, Dr. Walen also performs several facial surgery procedures that are required for medical reasons. These include facial trauma related deformities, skin cancer related facial reconstruction (Mohs surgery)
