Plastic surgery is a surgical specialty involving the restoration, reconstruction, or alteration of the human body. It can be divided into two main categories – reconstructive surgery and cosmetic surgery. A plastic surgeon’s primary responsibility is performing surgical and non-surgical procedures, and they use a variety of reparative and reconstructive techniques to get the job done.

Over the years, Dr. Bulan has been honored with numerous awards, including being named a Super Doctor seven years in a row (2014-2021), the Medical Society of New Jersey’s Physician’s Recognition Award, as well as being awarded City’s Best for Milburn in 2021.
