There may be several plastic surgeons in your area, but there is a foolproof way to select the best one for your cosmetic procedure needs. If you’ve decided to get plastic surgery, you need to select a surgeon who is not only recommended for that procedure in particular, but who will also fit your needs as a patient.
Below are three questions to ask yourself with any surgeon you’re considering:
Do they make you feel comfortable? With any doctor, whether they’re a general practitioner or a plastic surgeon, you need to make sure you feel comfortable around them. Always trust your gut and go with a surgeon who you feel a personal connection with, as long as they are also qualified.
Do they specialize in your desired procedure? It may be surprising, but many plastic surgeons specialize in different areas of cosmetic surgery. Not all surgeons perform all of the different cosmetic procedures. You are more likely to obtain an optimal result from a surgeon who is passionate about the procedures they perform. From rhinoplasty to breast augmentation, ask what procedures your surgeon enjoys performing.
Are they experienced? In order to ensure your plastic surgeon is qualified to perform the procedure you want, check their experience. Experienced surgeons are leaders in their field, are more likely to communicate effectively, and have experience in managing complications should they arise.
Whether you’re looking to get a face lift, nose job or laser skin resurfacing, make sure you go to the best surgeon for your needs, both medical and personal.
