About Us

Patients who undergo plastic surgery can look forward to gaining self confidence and a sense of well-being from looking, feeling and functioning at their best. For those who wish to enhance their appearance, today's cosmetic surgical procedures offer patients the opportunity to reshape physical features and improve their self-esteem.

Centra Medical Group Plastic Surgery Center of Lynchburg provides the latest in plastic, cosmetic and reconstructive surgery. Dr. Timothy J. Silvester, Dr. Simon Hatin, Dr. Keith Pitzer and Dr. Henry Wilson have more than 50 years of combined surgical experience. Our offices feature state-of-the-art equipment and facilities.

Payment Options

Fees for cosmetic plastic surgery generally are paid prior to surgery. Costs vary and depend on the complexity of the operation, where the surgery takes place and which anesthetic is administered.

As a rule, cosmetic plastic surgery is considered "elective surgery" and is not covered by most insurance plans. Some operations that have a significant functional aspect - such as breast reduction, if the weight of your breasts causes pain or interferes with normal activities - may be considered reconstructive rather than cosmetic.

We may recommend that your insurance company be contacted before surgery in such cases, to determine whether coverage is available. For your convenience, we accept VISA, Mastercard, American Express and Discover.

CareCredit, Financing Your Procedure

It's no longer necessary to delay a surgical procedure that you really want, nor worry about the inability to pay for treatment. Patient financing was created for people who don't want to tie up their traditional credit sources with medical debt or those who simply can't afford to pay out-of-pocket healthcare charges at one time.

Centra Medical Group Plastic Surgery Center offers patients the option to finance their procedure through CareCredit, allowing you to make low monthly payments over an extended period of time. Apply by phone on their automated application line at 1-800-365-8295.
