Plastic surgery is a surgical specialty involving the restoration, reconstruction, or alteration of the human body. It can be divided into two main categories – reconstructive surgery and cosmetic surgery. A plastic surgeon’s primary responsibility is performing surgical and non-surgical procedures, and they use a variety of reparative and reconstructive techniques to get the job done. 

An avid humanitarian, Dr. Boyd serves on the board of Bethany Kids, a non-profit organization that provides healthcare to children in East Africa. He devotes at least two weeks of every year to volunteer with World Medical Missions to perform cleft lip and cleft palate surgeries on children in Kenya.
