There are plastic surgeons located all around your area and you might think that \'finding\' one is incredibly easy. Although this is true, finding a quality plastic surgeon takes quite a bit more work. There are a few things that you can do in order to ensure that the plastic surgeon you choose is qualified enough for you to trust them and feel comfortable using them.
The best way to find a good plastic surgeon is to ask any friends that have had plastic surgery where they got their procedures done and see if they had a good experience and if everything worked out well. The only problem with this approach is that not everyone has had a friend who has had plastic surgery.
The next possible solution is to ask someone in the medical field, this being possibly your primary care physician or someone of that nature. They are bound to know many people in the industry and a few of those may be plastic surgeons. One the other hand you may find that primary physicians and related doctors may refer you to a plastic surgeon based on personal relationship rather than their abilities.
The best way to find a plastic surgeon that is of good quality is to contact the American Board of Plastic Surgery (whether it be by phone or by their website) to find certified plastic surgeons in your area. If you end up finding a plastic surgeon yourself be sure that they are certified by the ABPS before you use them, for your own safety.
When you meet with a plastic surgeon for an initial consultation, you should make sure to ask:
* May I see pictures of previous surgeries of the same procedure?
* Will surgery be performed in the office or hospital?
* Is the surgical facility accredited?
* Will I be asleep or awake during surgery?
* Will I be charged for follow-up appointments?
* Do you charge for revision surgery?
* How much pain will I experience with this surgery?
* Are there options for the type of procedure used?
* How long will my recovery take?
Having the answers to these questions can help you make a final decision on things. Seeing a plastic surgeon that can\'t answer these questions or doesn\'t give you a straight answer is a big problem. If you have any other questions in mind make sure you ask them at the consultation so that you don\'t have any worries or extra charges after your procedure that you did not expect.
Cost is another important factor for many patients when choosing your plastic surgeon.
The cost of plastic surgery can change from one plastic surgeon to another and in order for you to get the best estimate of what a surgery is going to cost you should talk to the plastic surgeon that you intend to use. There are a few things that you need to keep in mind when inquiring about the cost of a plastic surgery procedure. When talking to your plastic surgeon they may tell you only the surgeon\'s fee but you want to also be sure to ask about the anesthesia, operating room fee, and possible implant fee (if that applies to you). Most of the time when you receive a quote and it is only the surgeon\'s fee it really is only 60-80% of the entire cost, so be sure to ask about these other charges before you commit to anything.
The cost of different procedures varies greatly and it really depends on what procedure you are having done to determine whether you will be paying a few hundred dollars to a few thousand. Be sure to do some cost comparisons between surgeons to find the best price fit for you, but don\'t sacrifice quality for cost. Make sure that you are looking on at accredited hospitals or plastic surgery offices. By going to a non-accredited center you are more so risking your health for cost.
Try to keep in mind when trying to get a quote for work that the plastic surgeon may want to have an initial consultation with you in order to completely assess your needs and expectations. This is how a plastic surgeon can accurately determine how much work you are going to need done or what specific procedure he/she would have to perform on you. Don\'t be afraid to go in for an initial consultation and find out what kind of price you are looking at for your particular surgery.
