Plastic Surgery Things To Do Before Going Under

2
Use the Internet as a Research Tool

• The internet can be a very powerful tool in your
  search for the best plastic surgeon for you,
  since almost every plastic surgeon has a website.
  Its great if you have a friend that gives you a
  referral, but its still important to do your own
  research.

Review the Photos in the Surgeon's Gallery

• You should be able to view a wide variety of case
  examples the surgeon has performed to get an idea
  of their skill level, what their area of
  subspecialty is, and their aesthetic style. If
  you dont generally like a surgeons results, you
  should look at someone else. Do keep in mind that
  surgical outcomes are also dependent on where a
  patient started, so patients with more favorable
  anatomy before surgery often get better results
  after surgery.

4
Make Sure Your Doctor is a Member of an Esteemed
Medical Society

• Knowing your plastic surgeon is a member of the
  American Society Of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) and
  the American Society For Aesthetic Plastic
  Surgery (ASAPS) shows another level of
  professional and peer recognition, and ensures
  that your surgeon is considered ethical and
  qualified to do your surgery.

5
Make Sure Your Doctor is Board Certified

• The most important first step is to make sure
  that your surgeon is certified by the American
  Board Of Plastic Surgery. This is the only board
  recognized by the American Board Of Medical
  Specialties (ABMS) and shows that the surgeon had
  proper training in plastic surgery and has passed
  a rigorous set of exams to demonstrate that they
  are well trained and safe. 

6
Review Your Surgeon's Resume

• This should be on their website and will show
  which schools they attended, awards they have
  received, academic contributions they have made,
  and which hospitals have given them privileges.
  Even though most surgeons perform aesthetic
  plastic surgery in an outpatient setting, every
  board certified plastic surgeon is also required
  to have hospital privileges.

7
Maximize your Chances for Success

• Complications can occur with any surgery, but
  there are things that you can do to ease the
  process. Maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle
  are paramount in your recovery process. If you
  are overdue for a checkup by your primary care
  doctor, go for a general health check
  before plastic surgery. Make sure you are not
  smoking cigarettes or using recreational drugs
  for at least 4-6 weeks before and after surgery. 

8
Be Honest and Reasonable

• Once you have found the right surgeon for you,
  make sure you express what you are looking for in
  detail, and make sure you and your surgeon are on
  the same page. "Sometimes patients have
  unrealistic expectations for what they want, and
  it is the surgeons job to help align the
  patients expectations with what is realistically
  possible. Be careful of a surgeon that glosses
  over possible issues or complications. 

9
Maintain Communication With Your Surgeon

• If you have a concern or issue after plastic
  surgery, call your surgeons office and let them
  know. "Getting phone calls from patients is part
  of our job, and knowing if something is not quite
  right can help us correct things as efficiently
  as possible," Cohen states. "
