Dr. R. William Thompson is a Denver-based, double board-certified facial plastic surgeon specializing in Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery and Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. With a passion for helping patients look and feel their best, he combines expertise with a personalized approach to care.
After completing his residency in head and neck surgery at LSU Health Sciences Center in Shreveport, Louisiana, Dr. Thompson pursued additional specialty training in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. He was one of only forty-nine surgeons in the country to be accepted into a fellowship sponsored by the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS). During his fellowship, Dr. Thompson trained under the guidance of Dr. Stephen Smith, an AAFPRS fellowship director and leading facial plastic surgeon.
It was during this time that Dr. Thompson developed expertise in a wide range of cosmetic procedures, including facelifts, nose jobs, eyelid surgery, and minimally invasive and in-office procedures like BOTOX, fillers, chemical peels, and lasers. He also offers medical treatments and procedures like skin cancer and Mohs reconstruction, facial trauma surgery, and treatment for migraines.
