About Patrick C. Lay

Facial plastic surgery is a very personal experience. You want a surgeon with excellent technical skills refined through hard work and experience, of course, but one who is also a confidant, someone with whom you feel comfortable sharing your goals and motivations. Dr. Chase Lay is a rare facial Facial Plastic Surgeon in Bay Area located in San Jose who encompasses all of those traits.Raised and educated in Texas, where he earned his medical degree at the University of Texas, Dr. Lay completed his residency in Head and Neck Surgery at Southern Illinois University. While there, he performed more than 1,500 functional, reconstructive, and cosmetic procedures on the face and in particular the eyes and periorbital area. As a facial plastic surgeon trained in Head & Neck Surgery, Dr. Lay understands the importance of maintaining proper form and function of the eyes, nose, and face when performing cosmetic or reconstructive surgery.
