A graduate of Tulane Medical School in New Orleans, Louisiana, Dr. Larrabee brings academic depth to their surgical practice. This educational foundation informs a careful, anatomy-first approach to facial aging.

The deep plane facelift is one of Dr. Larrabee's core specialties. This technique works beneath the SMAS (the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, a supportive layer of muscle and tissue under the skin) to reposition deeper facial structures rather than simply pulling the skin.

Dr. Larrabee's surgical scope extends well beyond a single procedure. Dr. Larrabee offers facelift, mid facelift, forehead lifts, rhinoplasty, BOTOX Cosmetic, and Ultherapy, allowing patients to consider both surgical and non-surgical paths to rejuvenation.

Seattle serves as the home base for Dr. Larrabee's practice. Known as a hub of innovation and thoughtful, understated elegance, the Pacific Northwest city attracts patients who value natural-looking, refined outcomes.

Dr. Larrabee's philosophy emphasizes listening before operating. Their practice materials describe a patient-centered approach in which concerns are heard and expectations are aligned before any surgical plan is finalized.

Beyond the operating room, Dr. Larrabee is recognized for their humanitarian work. They founded Global Surgical Outreach, a nonprofit organization providing volunteer-led cleft lip and palate care, reflecting a career built on service.

The Larrabee Center also maintains a surgical fellowship program. Training the next generation of facial plastic surgeons is a hallmark of established academic surgeons, and this teaching role speaks to Dr. Larrabee's standing in the field.

Recovery is a central part of Dr. Larrabee's conversation with patients. A deep plane facelift typically involves a staged healing process, and setting realistic timelines is part of the surgeon's preoperative counseling.

Dr. Larrabee's approach to facial aging blends surgical and non-surgical options. Treatments such as Ultherapy and BOTOX Cosmetic can complement a rhytidectomy (the medical term for a facelift) or serve as standalone rejuvenation for the right candidate.

Rhinoplasty rounds out Dr. Larrabee's facial expertise. Nasal surgery demands a refined understanding of both form and function, and its inclusion in Dr. Larrabee's repertoire underscores a comprehensive command of facial anatomy.

International and out-of-region patients have historically sought out Dr. Larrabee. Dr. Larrabee's practice materials reference patients traveling from beyond Washington State to consult with Dr. Larrabee about facial surgery.

Dr. Larrabee's presence on Instagram, where Dr. Larrabee shares work under the handle waynelarrabee, offers prospective patients a window into their surgical results. Visual portfolios help candidates understand the natural aesthetic Dr. Larrabee pursues.

For affluent patients weighing a deep plane facelift, Dr. Wayne Larrabee represents an established option in Seattle. Dr. Larrabee's combination of decades of experience, ABPS credentials, and a focus on facial rejuvenation positions Dr. Larrabee as a well-regarded choice in the Pacific Northwest.
