He is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons. He has special interests in complex reconstruction in children with craniofacial syndromes. He also has special interests in complex reconstruction after cancer ablation. He has extensive experiences in cleft lip and cleft palate, endoscopic treatment of craniosynostosis, craniofacial distraction osteogenesis, and microvascular free tissue transfer for head and neck reconstruction.

Dr. Chaiyasate is an extremely compassionate, kind and talented professional who treats each patient as if they were his own family. His bedside manner is phenomenal. He and his support staff are extremely knowledgable in all areas of craniosynostosis, plagiocephaly and craniofacial syndromes. Dr. Chaiyasate uses the most up to date modern technology in his daily practice.

At Beaumont, Dr. Chaiyasate is Director of the Reconstructive Microsurgery program and the Ian Jackson Craniofacial and Cleft Palate Clinic.

Dr. Chaiyasate specializes in reconstructive pediatric and adult plastic surgery and offers a number of services including:

cleft lip and palate repair

Dr. Chaiyasate first will determine if the child has craniosynostosis or plagiocephaly. If craniosynostosis is confirmed, Dr. Chaiyasate will determine on a case to case basis whether to perform endoscopic repair of the craniosynostosis, or to use the open technique. He uses 3D CT with reconstruction to form a skull model for surgical planning. The children are followed closely by the team of specialists at the Beaumont Ian Jackson Craniofacial and Cleft Palate Clinic.

There is no cranial molding orthosis on site, however, there is one we work very closely with that is a few miles away from the hospital. The patients do go directly to our pediatric radiology department onsite for an x-ray if indicated.
