Paul Kraft, CLT, LSO, Laser Specialist

Paul Kraft Day is an Ablative Laser Specialist at Vida Bela Plastic Surgery in Plano, TX. In his early formative years working with medical ablative lasers and energy-based modalities, Paul worked in medical dermatology. This immersion provided an excellent foundation to build his knowledge base of skin physiology, skin disorders, the aging process, and how laser physics and unique treatment protocols can fix a wide range of problems that affect us all. Following his years in dermatology, Paul made the transition into the realm of plastic surgery about 11 years ago.

Paul is renowned internationally for his unique and comprehensive skill set that allows him to create endless unique treatment plans for any patient, using a wide range of the latest cutting-edge lasers (including the game-changing Helix nano C02/1570) and energy-based modalities. He was an early trailblazer in creating multi-modality treatment protocols in order to repair as many skin aging problems as possible, often in a single treatment with one short healing time. Many highly effective treatments have no downtime while providing dynamic results. Advanced laser protocols can often be combined with surgery and fat grafting in the same procedure.
