About Atlanta plastic surgeon, Mark Jones, M.D. Dr. Jones is a very well-trained Plastic Surgeon, having been educated at the finest institutions in the world. Indeed, Georgia is fortunate to have one of its native sons go to England, France, California, and Johns Hopkins to learn the Most up-to-date techniques in plastic surgery and bring these techniques and skills to Georgia.

Know your Surgeon!

The training that Dr. Jones has had is unusual in both quality and quantity. There are few surgeons who have had such an extensive preparation of 21 years. It began in Atlanta at Emory University where Dr. Jones completed his pre-medical studies. While at Emory he received a rotary Scholarship from the state of Georgia because of his excellent record. On account of the scholarship and his outstanding work at the Medical college of Georgia, he was able to attend the University of Canterbury in New Zealand, and the Honours School of Physiology in the Medical School at Oxford University, England, over a 3 year period. Thereafter he completed his medical school at the University of Georgia, earning four degrees in four years.

Twelve years of surgical training followed: two years were spent in general Surgery with the first at the Medical University Hospital in Charleston, South Carolina, and the second in Baltimore, Maryland. Four years of rigorous training followed at the world-famous John Hopkins Hospital specializing in facial surgery. At Hopkins the emphasis was on the head and neck, nasal anatomy, the sinuses, ear surgery, and neck structures. The fourth year at Hopkins, Dr. Jones became a faculty member and was active in teaching and directing surgical residents specializing in ear, nose, and throat surgery (ENT). This was followed by 3 years at the renowned Plastic Surgery program at Stanford University in California where many pioneering events in Plastic Surgery have taken place.

Plastic surgery is big in California! This fascination with youth and appearance makes it a most desirable place to train in Plastic Surgery.

Moreover, Dr. Jones was given, as a representative of Stanford, a Fulbright Fellowship to study in Paris, France, for a year with the genius of Plastic Surgery, Dr. Paul Tessier, who is the "Father of Facial-Cranial Surgery," as well as Dr. Yves Illouz, the inventor of liposuction; Dr. Vladimir Mitz, whose studies and techniques have advanced the face-lift procedures into its modern form; Dr. Renee Malik, who has pioneered children's cleft lip and cleft palate surgery; Dr. Dardour-a pioneer in hairflaps; and Dr. Jost-the French nose surgeon who, like Dr. Jones, has completed training in both ENT and Plastic Surgery.

Dr. Jones moved to Atlanta in November 1989 to return to his native Georgia for several reasons. One is to raise his family in Atlanta and to bring back to Georgia the fruits and talents he has obtained from his 21 years of training at the leading centers in the United States and in Europe and to help make Atlanta a better center for Plastic Surgery.

Dr. Jones' professional papers have appeared in several medical journals including "The Annals of Plastic Surgery," as well as presented at multiple conferences including the American Society of Head and Neck Surgery and the XIII World Congress. He has been quoted and interviewed by such general magazines as Women's Daily and for CBS television's Sixty Minutes by Diane Sawyer as well as local television stations. He is also a guest speaker and lecturer in the community. He has been a participant in the nationally recognized Interplast program volunteering his services to poor children of South America who cannot afford to have surgery on their cleft lips or cleft palates or burn scars.
