Choosing a plastic surgeonCosmetic & plastic surgery guideWith cosmetic surgery gaining in popularity more and more over the last few years, some types of cosmetic surgery are now a much more common procedure and are no longer just for the rich and famous. With any licensed physician being able to call themselves a cosmetic surgeon it is important you make the right choice when considering who to go with for you procedure. Finding a surgeon that is a registered member of cosmetic and plastic surgery is a must as surgeons who are listed with a board of cosmetic surgery will normally have had specialised training in the field and will have had at least five years of surgical training and two years training in the field of cosmetic or plastic surgery. What can I expect during a consultation? The surgeon should only be too happy to spend as much time with you as needed outlining the type of surgery you require and will give an honest and open opinion about how the surgery could turn out for you. As well as talking about the procedure, you should also ask questions regarding their experience and background. Questions you should ask before committing to surgery are * How long have they specialised in cosmetic surgery? * Do they perform procedures purely for cosmetic reasons or do they take on other cases? * Ask if they recommend alternatives to surgery. * What techniques do they use to perform specific surgery? * Are they registered with a board of cosmetic or plastic surgeons? * If so how long have they been registered? Once you have satisfied yourself that you have found the right cosmetic surgeon for you, you can then book an appointment for an initial consultation for the surgery that you require. This is the time when you should ask the surgeon any questions you might have regarding the surgery, questions you could ask are: * What are the risks if any to the surgery? * What are the recovery times? * Does the procedure require a hospital stay? * What type of anaesthesia does the surgeon prefer to use? * How will the surgery be performed? * Is there any alternative to the surgery? * How long does it take to perform the surgery? * Will there be any scarring after the surgery? * Will I need to take time off work due to the surgery? * How much will the surgery cost and are there payment plans? * What will the outcome of the surgery be? Most cosmetic surgeons should be able to give you a good idea of what you can expect from the surgery by using a variety if means such as computer software. |
