The only female board-certified plastic surgeon in Gig Harbor.
Dr. Melissa Larsen is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery — the only plastic surgery board recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties. That means four years of medical school and roughly six years of residency dedicated entirely to plastic surgery, a path fewer than 1% of physicians complete. Why this matters →
From injectables to surgery, every treatment at Nordhavn is performed by Dr. Larsen herself.
A boutique practice, by design
Plastic surgery is personal. It deserves more than a fifteen-minute consultation and a handoff to whoever happens to be available for follow-up.
At Nordhavn, you'll work directly with Dr. Larsen — and the same small team — from your first consultation through your final post-operative visit. Longer appointments. Unhurried planning. A surgeon who's accessible before, during, and after your procedure. The kind of care that begins weeks before the operating room and continues well into recovery.
This is what a boutique practice should mean: fewer patients, more attention, and a relationship built around your goals.
What People Are Saying
“Her knowledge, care, experience, expertise and bedside manner (empathy) are beyond compare.”
“Dr. Larsen listens, cares, and will take the time to answer all your questions. I highly recommend her”
“Dr. Larsen was incredible. She was so respectful and gentle and thoroughly explained the options and surgery. We were so pleased with the information she shared before and after the surgery. And we were so pleased with the results. The work she did was near perfection. We could not be happier. Thank you!”
“She explained the surgery and made sure that the resulting scar was in the best possible place. Healing was fast and it looks great.”
“In the end, the best decision was going to have to be made when I was anesthetized and I had great confidence that she would make the best decision given her knowledge of my goals. I woke up from surgery not knowing what to expect and was delighted that she had been able to meet my requests.”
