Dr. Marc Dupéré MD, CM, FRCSC Board-Certified Cosmetic & Reconstructive Plastic Surgeon
Dr. Marc DuPéré was originally trained at the prestigious McGill University Faculty of Medicine from 1991 to 1996, in Montréal. Trilingual (French, English & Portuguese), he then attended the world renowned University of Toronto where he completed his Fellowship of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada in Plastic Surgery.
In 2002 he pursued further training in cosmetic plastic surgery in Paris, France. It is while completing his fellowship training in Paris that he had the opportunity to work with internationally recognized plastic surgeons such as: Dr. Daniel Marchac, specializing in facial plastic surgery, Dr. Gilbert Aiach, a Nasal Plastic Surgeon and at the time, president of the French Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, Dr. Natalie Bricout and Dr. Sylvain Pétouin, both with strong interests in cosmetic and reconstructive breast surgery.
Dr. DuPéré subsequently had the great opportunity to spend some education time with Dr. Bruce Connell, a very prominent facelift Plastic Surgeon in Los Angeles where he learned all the refinements of facial rejuvenation. Dr. Patricia Wexler, a prominent Dermatologist in New York City, features also on his list of mentors; Dr. Wexler is an expert in dermal injections, skin care and fat grafting.
Dr. DuPéré's surgical interests include facial & nasal surgery, body contouring, post-weight loss reconstruction and breast enhancement. Dr. DuPéré is also one of only a few North-American surgeons performing calf, buttock and pectoral implantations, something he got to appreciate fully after visiting Brazil.
Facial injections are also a significant component of his practice; having participated to many North American FACE meetings and also trained numerous doctors in Ontario, he developed a highly-skilled expertise in 3-dimensional facial volume restoration and rejuvenation, all with no or minimal downtime.
One of Dr. Marc's strong qualities is his warm personality that everyone appreciates, especially when contemplating a surgical procedure. He is extremely approachable, down-to-earth, reassuring, attentive to details and knowledgeable.
An avid photographer and artist, Dr. DuPéré's precision work has attained high levels of refinement and excellence.
It is with a North American training and European refinement that Dr. DuPéré brings a uniquely Atlantic perspective and approach to the practice of aesthetic and plastic surgery.
