About

Dr. Leslie G. Branch is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon practicing in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. At Forsyth Plastic Surgery, which has served the area since 1970, Dr. Branch specializes in both cosmetic and reconstructive procedures, including breast reconstruction, panniculectomy, tummy tuck, and breast lift with implants. Her approach to facelifts and neck lifts focuses on a "refreshed, not reinvented" look, aiming to restore natural shape and definition, especially along the jawline and neck, without an "overdone" or "pulled" appearance. Dr. Branch and her team believe in personalized care plans, customizing every treatment to a patient's unique anatomy and goals. They do not chase trends or aim for a "done" look, instead striving for results that make patients feel like their most confident selves. The practice ensures patients feel heard during consultations and understand each step of their journey. Procedures like the Alma Hybrid CO2 laser can be combined with facelifts to address skin texture, tone, and fine lines for a "refreshed inside and out" outcome. The in-house med spa, The VISTA, offers treatments such as PRP sessions for hair growth and the Mermaid Facial (nano-microneedling + PDRN) to stimulate collagen and renew skin.

Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Leslie G. Branch

Sourced directly from Dr. Leslie G. Branch's social posts and replies.

What is the practice's approach to Facelifts and Neck Lifts?
Facelifts and Neck Lifts at Forsyth Plastic Surgery are designed to restore firmness and contour, especially along the jawline and neck, aiming for a refreshed, not reinvented look. The goal is to preserve natural features and avoid an 'overdone' or 'pulled' appearance. A surgical lift repositions and tightens underlying tissue for natural, long-lasting results. The loss of elasticity in these areas is often difficult to address non-surgically.
Can Facelifts be combined with other treatments?
Yes, combining a facelift with treatments like the Alma Hybrid CO2 laser can simultaneously address skin texture, tone, and fine lines, aiming for a result that looks refreshed inside and out.
What discount programs are available for Juvéderm treatments?
Forsyth Plastic Surgery participates in Allē Rewards, including Juvéderm Day offers where patients can receive exclusive gift cards and discounts. New patients can stack savings, potentially receiving up to $275 off their first Juvéderm treatment. It's recommended to book a consultation as soon as gift cards are secured, as they sell out fast.
What does Blepharoplasty address?
Blepharoplasty can address hooding, puffiness, or heaviness around the upper or lower eyelids. Results are subtle and natural, making patients look more refreshed and awake, not 'done.' It can be performed as a standalone procedure or combined with other facial procedures.
What is The Renewal Package?
The Renewal Package consists of 3 PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) sessions designed to promote new hair growth on the scalp. It is currently offered with a $500 discount and includes a free Nutrafol Starter Kit (a $40 value).
What product discounts are available at The VISTA Med Spa?
The VISTA Med Spa offers 20% off all Nutrafol supplements and hair products, as well as Obagi Medical Nu-Cil growth serums, which are suitable for use on the scalp, brows, and lashes.
Why do some dermal filler results look 'overfilled'?
Overfilled results typically stem from overcorrection, not the filler product itself. When administered by skilled hands, dermal filler can subtly enhance natural features, making individuals appear 'refreshed.'
How long do plastic surgery results last?
Many plastic surgery procedures, such as breast augmentation and facelifts, are designed to last for years, and sometimes decades, with proper care.
What is the typical recovery time for plastic surgery?
Recovery time varies significantly depending on the specific treatment. Some treatments allow patients to return to normal life within days, while others may require more extended recovery.
Who uses preventative Botox and what does it achieve?
More and more people in their 20s and 30s use Botox preventatively to slow the formation of fine lines before they become established.
What is the Mermaid Facial?
The Mermaid Facial, offered by The VISTA Med Spa, consists of nano-microneedling and PDRN. It is often paired with an LED Treatment. This treatment stimulates collagen, renews the skin's surface, and leaves the skin with a glow. A special offer price for this combination was $299 (a $500 value).
When is a good time for skin reset treatments?
Mid-summer is considered a perfect time to reset skin after exposure to sun, heat, and humidity.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2024)

$1,042

Payments

29

Compared to peers

Moderate

Dr. Leslie G. Branch received $1,042 across 29 payments in 2024. That is higher than about 71% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was ABBVIE INC..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
