Dr. Carraway has been teaching and practicing for 35 years in the medical school and has been involved as Director and Chairman of residency training programs and fellowship programs in plastic surgery.

While he is an active and busy surgeon performing mostly facial and eyelid cosmetic surgery, he has a long-standing interest in anti-aging and wellness for his patients. He also performs cosmetic and reconstructive breast surgery in addition to liposuction and body contouring. He has given hundreds of presentations, written many articles for the lay and scientific literature, and has devoted himself to teaching his colleagues nationally and internationally in techniques which will help their patients age better with or without plastic surgery. His stated goal is to share all of the information on age management, nutrition, supplements, and other aspects of age management and wellness to as many professionals as he can reach.

His practice also includes the use of treatment to improve the aging skin, correction of puffiness and hollow areas around the eyelids, and improvement of facial aging around the face and neck. He is well versed in all areas of cosmetic surgical treatment of the face, eyes, and body.
