Dr. Sarah Mess, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Dr. Mess is the daughter of an orthopedic surgeon father and artist mother, who naturally inspired her approach to plastic surgery. Combining artistry with surgery, Dr. Mess has developed a unique practice tailored to the goals and concerns of her patients. Whether it’s more shapely breast, a slimmer waist, or a more youthful face, Dr. Mess’ surgical skills provide patients with exceptional, natural looking results. While many cosmetic and reconstructive patients seek out Dr. Mess solely for her surgical expertise, others come to Dr. Mess to avoid surgery. Dr. Mess believes that while surgery is often the best answer, it is by no means the only answer. We live in an amazing age of aesthetic medical advances. Twenty years ago there was no Botox, no dermal filler, no CoolSculpting. Today non-invasive products and technologies are some of the fastest growing aesthetic procedures worldwide. Dr. Mess is constantly exploring the latest and best products and technologies to incorporate into her practice. She combines surgical expertise with the newest advances in non-invasive fat reduction, skin tightening technologies, lasers and fat transfer to offer the very best aesthetic results for both her surgical and non-surgical patients. Born in Washington, D.C. and raised in Olney, Maryland, Dr. Mess has strong ties to the region. She is affiliated with the Howard County General Hospital in Columbia, Northwest Hospital in Randallstown, Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, and Montgomery General Hospital in Olney. She is a part-time instructor at Johns Hopkins and was named Plastic Surgery Section Chief at Howard County General in 2014.
