Does all cosmetic surgery cost the same?

The prices of cosmetic surgery vary from procedure to procedure and from clinic to clinic which will offers the surgery, what you will pay will depend on several things such as:



* The surgeons fee - charges for the surgeons fee will vary considerable depending upon factors such as their experience and the facility in which they work.

* The hospital of facilities fee - it doesn't matter if you have your surgery in the surgeons clinic or a hospital you will still have to pay a fee and depending on whether the surgery requires a stay in the facility or hospital there may be an additional fee for that.

* The aesthesia fee - if you have to have a general or local anaesthetic then you will be required to pay the fee for the aesthesia.

Will the surgery be covered by my health insurance policy?


Normally most health insurance policies don't cover cosmetic surgery, however if the surgery is for medical reasons then it would be worth asking if your insurance would cover this before going ahead with the surgery. If cosmetic surgery is listed on your policy then you should get all the details as to what this exactly means as definitions for "medical" and "cosmetic" reasons vary from company to company.

How do I know if the cosmetic surgeon is qualified?

Choosing a well-qualified cosmetic surgeon is the most important decision you will have to make with regards to your surgery and should be chosen very carefully, there are several ways you can go about finding an experienced qualified cosmetic surgeon and these include:

* Checking for board certification - this is a board that only certifies a fully trained, experienced cosmetic surgeon who has several years training.

* Do they have professional membership? - this is usually a professional society which promotes standards and education in the profession of cosmetic surgery.

* Look for hospital accreditation - check to make sure the cosmetic surgeon is on the staff at an accredited hospital.

Will my cosmetic surgery be obvious to family and friends?

Cosmetic surgeons are continually striving to ensure that procedures are carried out to give the end result which is as natural as possible. Of course the whole point of having surgery in the first place will have either been to correct a medical condition to make you more self confident or make you look younger, so it would be pointless if nobody noticed the difference after having gone through the surgery.

How long will the effects of the surgery last?

This of course will depend greatly on the type of surgery you had and the reasons for having it done, if you had surgery to correct a problem such as nose reshaping or cheek or chin enhancements then of course the surgery will be permanent.
