More about Dr. Eric Culbertson

About

During his fellowship focusing on plastic surgery and aesthetics, Dr. Culbertson was educated in the most up-to-date surgical and non-surgical cosmetic treatments, such as the most current facelifts, rhinoplasty, breast augmentation, drainless abdominoplasty, liposuction, and body contouring including fat grafting and BBLs. He was also taught about laser skin rejuvenation, IPL, hair transplantation, fillers, and botulinum toxins. Dr. Culbertson understands that each patient has a unique anatomy, desires, and expectations. He strives to deliver natural-looking results which will boost a patient's self-assurance and bring out the individual's true identity.

It is usually beneficial to combine different techniques, such as liposuction and fat grafting when attempting to achieve the best possible outcome. Dr. Culbertson will be a partner to you throughout the entire journey: from making a plan to meet your objectives during the initial appointment to accompanying you during your recovery period and making sure your expectations are fulfilled. Since Dr. Culbertson and his family arrived in Santa Rosa in 2017, he has been an active member of the community. His current role is President of the non-profit Active 20-30 Club of Santa Rosa #50, which focuses on helping disadvantaged children in Sonoma County.

Eric Culbertson’s Journey

Eric Culbertson has received qualifications from both the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery, with a focus on aesthetic surgery of the breasts and body. He deepened his knowledge by completing a one-year fellowship at the University of Texas Southwestern's plastic surgery program, which has been ranked first in the U.S. for the last three years. During his program, he had the opportunity to learn from some of the most renowned plastic surgeons in the world. Culbertson was educated in several surgical and non-surgical cosmetic techniques, such as breast augmentation, drainless abdominoplasty, liposuction, body contouring, fat grafting, fillers, and botulinum toxins. Before this, he attended the University of Wisconsin in Madison, where he obtained his undergraduate and medical degrees.

Dr. Culbertson completed his general surgery training at the University of California San Francisco and the University of Michigan. After that, he did an extra three years of plastic and reconstructive surgery residency at the University of California Los Angeles. He believes that each patient is unique and that their anatomy, wishes, and expectations should be taken into account when performing a procedure. He aims to provide natural-looking results that enhance the person's self-esteem and remain true to their identity. He also believes that a combination of different techniques, such as liposuction and fat grafting, can often achieve better outcomes than one single technique.
