Specializing in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, Dr. Young S. Paik is Evansville’s only double board-certified facial plastic surgeon. Seeing patients from across the region, he provides comprehensive facial plastic and reconstructive surgery as well as non-surgical facial rejuvenation procedures and offers skin care and rehabilitation treatments for his patients.

Dr. Paik was born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri. He completed his undergraduate degree in neuroscience at Vanderbilt University. He then pursued a career in medicine and received his medical degree at the University of Missouri School of Medicine. Dr. Paik’s Head and Neck Surgery training continued with an otolaryngology residency at the University of Missouri. After residency training, he further specialized and perfected his training by completing a highly competitive American Academy of Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS) fellowship under the tutelage of Dr. Keith LaFerriere, an internationally recognized leader in the field of facial plastic surgery, in Springfield, Missouri. During this fellowship, Dr. Paik received advanced cosmetic and reconstructive training focused on the face and neck.

As a double board-certified and fellowship-trained facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Paik has published several articles in the field of facial plastic surgery and head and neck surgery, and he has presented his research at both local organizations and national meetings. He enjoys staying connected to his friends and colleagues in the field of facial plastic surgery across the country. He is also involved in humanitarian work and has spent time in Kijabe, Kenya performing cleft lip and palate surgeries. In 2023, Dr. Paik and his wife welcomed a baby boy to their family. During his free time, Dr. Paik enjoys traveling with his family, fly fishing, and running.
