He was National Chairman of the Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Division of the American College of Osteopathic Surgeons and served on the certifying board of the American Osteopathic Board of Surgery
Since 1999, Eisenberg has focused his practice solely on cosmetic breast surgery: augmentation mammoplasty, mastopexy (breast lift), correction of breast asymmetry, and breast reduction. He has contributed articles on the trade-off's between saline versus silicone breast implants, minimizing post-operative nausea and vomiting, and a novel use of the StratticeTM patch for breast implant exposure. An authority on simultaneous augmentation mastopexy, Eisenberg is the creator of the IDEAL Breast Lift, a technique to previsualize the extent of tissue to be removed to achieve symmetry and maximum lift. He teaches his technique to surgeons around the country.
