Founded in 2001 in St. Louis, the Practice has built a strong reputation in the greater St. Louis area for its combination of elite surgical expertise and medspa services. Parkcrest is staffed by two board-certified plastic surgeons, four injectors, and two aestheticians, offering a full range of surgical procedures alongside a comprehensive suite of medspa services.

The Practice’s reputation is anchored by the deep experience of its two lead surgeons. Dr. Caplin has built a national profile in facial rejuvenation, including deep plane facelifts, suspension necklifts, and browlifts. He is also a co-founder of the Gateway to Hope non-profit, which aims to remove barriers to affordable, timely, and quality breast healthcare. Dr. McGuire, a St. Louis native, is a skilled surgeon who specializes in breast procedures. A former President of the Aesthetic Foundation, she has an extensive publication record on breast implant safety. Both doctors also are currently Clinical Instructors of Surgery at Washington University.

Dr. Caplin said, “We are thrilled to join UAA, and this new chapter will allow us to keep doing what we’ve always done: deliver personalized, high-quality care, but with additional backing to invest in our team and facilities as we grow.”

“Dr. Caplin and Dr. McGuire are exceptional physicians who have earned outstanding reputations in aesthetic medicine,” said Amy Shecter, CEO of United Aesthetics Alliance. “They have built an extraordinary practice, and we are honored to welcome them to the UAA community as they continue to grow, innovate, and shape the future of aesthetic care in St. Louis.”

“We are proud of the standard of care we've built at Parkcrest over two decades, and we're excited to have UAA's support to invest further in research, training, and the resources behind that care,” said Dr. McGuire.

Parkcrest Plastic Surgery will continue to operate from its current St. Louis location under its existing name.
