 San Diego Plastic Surgeon Johan E. Brahme, M.D. Welcome to my site. I’d like to tell you a bit about myself so that you can get to know me, my background and my patient care philosophy. I have always felt that the more you know about someone, the better decisions you can make about who and what is right for you. And, let’s face it, this is all about you and your decisions. My philosophy in patient care is essentially the application of the Golden Rule…to care for every single patient the way I would want my own family to be treated. My team and I make you the center of your plastic surgery experience. It is about your body, your life, your desires and your decisions. You will find us honest, caring, highly experienced and qualified; ask anyone who has been here. I was born into a family of physicians and spent all my young life around doctors and hospitals. I was born and raised in Malmo, Sweden. My father often took me to work with him when I was a small boy. I loved the way that good doctors were able to comfort and help the patients. When it came time for me to choose a career, there was no doubt in my mind that medicine was my path. I always loved science, art and people... What better way to spend my life than practicing medicine. And plastic surgery in particular.  Doctor in the making, Dr. Brahme investigating his father's stethoscope My family immigrated to the United States when I was in high school. We settled in San Diego, where my father was a professor at the UCSD medical school. Later, I went to UCSD myself both as a medical student and in plastic surgery. While I was training in plastic surgery, I became involved in a program called Interface, which focuses on providing cleft lip and palate surgery to poor children in Mexico. We travel to small clinics all over Mexico and perform life-changing operations. To this day, it has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. To light up a child’s face with a new smile is a gift I am glad that I am able to give. After completing UCSD, I decided to stay in San Diego and open my practice. I remained on the faculty at UCSD, advising and teaching residents. After a few years in solo practice, I was invited to join the prestigious La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Centre. I am happy to be part of the practice which was voted the best cosmetic surgery practice in San Diego in 2008 and 2009. I have served as President of the San Diego Plastic Surgery Society and continue to be involved in the international outreach program Interface. On the personal side, I have been married for 23 years to an exceptional woman, a physician and the mother of our two children, Lucas, 16 and Alexandra, 15. I play music with my kids and my father and am on the Board of Directors of the La Jolla Music Society. My passions are music, traveling, my family and plastic surgery. I welcome you to the La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Centre and look forward to meeting you and discussing your desires and goals.
