In the quest to improve and enhance one's physical features, and to look younger and feel better, millions of people are turning to aesthetic plastic surgery. Advancing techniques and clever advertising that promises to make dreams come true can entice countless patients to the operating table.

Because of the increasing demand, millions of disposable consumer dollars, and poor reimbursement from Managed Care and HMOs, physicians and surgeons from many different specialties are opting to provide cosmetic surgery services. The result is an increasing number of physicians with widely varying backgrounds, training, and experience. Understand that the majority of cosmetic surgeons are highly skilled and perform successful operations, but how do you choose?

As with all surgical procedures, cosmetic surgery carries potential risks, which can be disfiguring or even life threatening. It is paramount, therefore, to choose a plastic surgeon that is highly skilled in performing the procedure(s) desired to minimize potential for complication, and optimize the chance of having an excellent and natural appearing result.

Choosing the right plastic surgeon is no easy task. After visiting two or three different surgeons and receiving varied opinions, often more questions are entertained than answered. Understand there are often different ways to successfully obtain a particular result. However, there are just as many ways that do not produce satisfactory results. It's just not easy making the right choice. To be honest, it is not which plastic surgeon has the best credentials, or who is Board Certified or a member of the ASPS (American Society of Plastics Surgeons). The vast majority of serious malpractice suits are against Board Certified Plastic Surgeons. Unfortunately, there are also Board Certified Surgeons with impressive credentials that are members of any number of prestigious societies who, frankly, have many results that are less than satisfactory. The point is…don't be lulled into a false sense of security. Board Certification and ASPS membership does not guarantee quality results. Proper credentials and Board Certification are an important place to start, but the truth of the matter…the goal is to choose a plastic surgeon that produces exceptional results on a consistent basis.
