Plastic Surgeon Dr. Glen Brooks Receives Awards

LONGMEADOW — Aesthetic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, P.C., a plastic-surgery and non-invasive practice serving Western Mass. and Northern Conn., announced the practice has been recognized with the prestigious Diamond Status by Allergan Inc., and CoolSculpting Premier Crystal Status by ZELTIQ Aesthetics Inc.

Allergan is an innovator of modern medicine, best-known to the public as the maker of Botox Cosmetic, Juvederm, and Latisse. ZELTIQ Aesthetics is a medical-technology company focused on developing and commercializing products utilizing its proprietary controlled-cooling technology platform. The CoolSculpting System, ZELTIQ’s first commercial product, is designed to selectively reduce stubborn fat bulges that may not respond to diet and exercise.

“Expertise is essential for the best results, which is why it’s important for patients to consider not just what treatment will provide the desired aesthetic, but also the skill level of the medical professional providing the treatment,” Brooks said. “While many cosmetic practices and other medical providers do offer treatments like injectable fillers by Allergan, they most likely have not achieved Allergan’s Diamond Status. This designation is more than just a label — it’s a vote of confidence that these medical professionals are the best in their industry.”

Brooks is a board-certified plastic surgeon who sees patients and performs procedures at several local hospitals, including Baystate Medical Center, Mercy Medical Center, Baystate Noble Hospital, and Holyoke Medical Center. He is a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, the New England Society of Plastic Surgery, and the Mass. Society of Plastic Surgeons.
