Meet Dr. Hayes
David M. Hayes, MD, FACS
Facial Plastic Surgeon in Missoula, MT
“I knew I wanted to be a doctor when I was in the fourth grade. I have always been good with my hands and I strive for perfection, so cosmetic facial surgery is a perfect fit. My philosophy is to achieve a natural-looking result with every surgery and procedure – I believe less can be more. I also think the goal of cosmetic surgery is to help patients look like younger, more attractive versions of themselves."
“This is a very creative field that blends art and science. I love the fact that it is primarily elective – patients come to you not because they have to but because they want to make a positive change. It’s very rewarding to see the gratitude in someone’s eyes when you’ve been able to fulfill their expectations and improve their self-image.”
