About Dr. Hampton A. Howell
Dr. Howell is proud to call North Carolina home, having grown up in High Point, North Carolina. He graduated magna cum laude from Virginia Tech with a BS in Mechanical Engineering and went on to receive his Medical Doctorate degree from Wake Forest University School of Medicine. A move to Grand Rapids, Michigan allowed Dr. Howell to complete both his general surgery and formal plastic surgery training at the Grand Rapids/Michigan State University program. During his last year there, he was a Chief Resident in plastic surgery. Acceptance into the selective New York Eye and Ear Infirmary aesthetic fellowship in New York City necessitated a move to Manhattan where Dr. Howell trained with many leaders in the field of cosmetic surgery. Dr. Howell was excited to move back home to North Carolina when he joined Salem Plastic Surgery in Winston-Salem in 2006.
His long list of credentials enables him to have a widely diversified practice, including a full range of cosmetic and reconstructive procedures. In addition to being a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, he is also a member of the prestigious American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. He has also served as both the Plastic Surgery Section Chief and President of Medical Staff at Medical Park Hospital. Of particular note, Dr. Howell is the first plastic surgeon in the area to have completed a formal cosmetic plastic surgery fellowship.
“It truly is a privilege to be able to touch people’s lives in the way that I am able to as a plastic surgeon,” says Dr. Howell. “I am repeatedly humbled as I am allowed to walk along with my patients on that particular shared segment of their journey through life.” He is proud of the combined resources of the staff at Salem Plastic Surgery and the team effort which is an integral part of making great patient experiences.
Dr. Howell was recently recognized as an IDEAL IMPLANT Preferred Surgeon due to his extensive expertise working with IDEAL IMPLANT® Structured Breast Implants, the latest technology in breast augmentation. With a unique structure surrounding these saline-filled implants, women can achieve beautiful results with zero risk of silent rupture. Dr. Howell uses the IDEAL IMPLANT to help women look and feel their best. With the IDEAL IMPLANT, no expensive MRIs are needed, and they come with a lower risk of both capsule contracture and ruptures when compared to other implants.
