He can often be found teaching his expert techniques to other physicians and aspires to dedicate more and more time mentoring and consulting with his peers. Lack's unparalleled expertise includes travels to Europe, where he evaluated ultrasonic lipos culture as a member of the delegation of the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery. Lack also co-authored "Liposuction and Patient Safety," published in the American Journal of Cosmetic Surgery. What is on the horizon for Dr. Lack? His dream is to write a book highlighting the tried and true advances in cosmetic dermatology.

After graduating Phi Beta Kappa from Michigan State University, he went on to graduate Alpha Omega Alpha (honor medical society) from Wayne State University School of Medicine. He also trained with Dr. William Beeson, the former president of the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery. Rachel has published numerous academic papers in prestigious peer-reviewed medical journals, including The Archives of Otolaryngology and Dermatologic Surgery, and has presented much of his work at national medical meetings.

Surgeon ProfileDr. Joseph Franco is certified by the American Board of Surgery and the American Board of Plastic Surgery.

He is also in private practice. After completing a fellowship in hand surgery in 1993, Franco finished plastic surgery training at Loyola University Medical Center in 1996. The culmination of nearly 20 years of surgical training and practice, complemented by experience with comprehensive reconstructive procedures, has led Franco to become highly regarded in his field. His areas of expertise include breast augmentation and reduction, abdominoplasty ("tummy tucks") and breast lifts. Franco's familiarity with minimally invasive surgery techniques and his willingness to perform cosmetic surgery without the use of general anesthesia complements Dr. Lack's and Dr. Rachel's abilities to offer the safest, most up-to-date and effective procedures to enhance any patient's appearance and self-esteem.
