Things You Must Know Before Choosing Your Cosmetic Surgeon

Posted by Mr. Sultan Hassan on November 16th, 2016

No matter your reason for having cosmetic surgery, it is essential to choose only the best surgeon who has a lot of experience in the procedure that you want. There are many reasons why people seek a cosmetic surgeon, and these include the need to fix a physical flaw or an imperfection that is causing them to feel insecure and less confident. You may want to consider looking for a cosmetic surgeon if you have lost a lot of weight and you want the extra fat and skin to go away. The same professional will be able to provide a solution to an ageing body and face, too, by conducting procedures that could take a few or more years off. Just be sure to know the following things before you choose a cosmetic surgeon:

  • Licensed and board-certified – Only choose a cosmetic surgeon who is licensed to practise surgery and medicine in the UK. Moreover, make sure that the surgeon is board-certified and connected with only accredited and the finest clinics or hospitals. Be sure to verify the license and certification with their respective providers.
  • Experience – It is essential for a cosmetic surgeon to be experienced in the procedure that you want. Hence, when comparing surgeons, be sure to go for someone who has been in practise for at least a decade, and determine how many procedures he is capable of performing in a week or in a month. For instance, find out how many nose jobs or boob jobs he typically does in a month and how successful those procedures were.
  • Before and after photos – Reputable cosmetic surgeons will not hesitate to show and share photos of their patients before and after different procedures. The photos should help you determine the significant changes and improvements in appearance and help you measure the ability and skill of the surgeon in ensuring a successful procedure. Be sure to look at before-and-after photos of patients who have undergone the procedure that you want.
  • What other patients have to say about the surgeon – Cosmetic surgeons may claim to be friendly, respectful, and skilled, but you can never be too sure about those claims until you hear them from actual patients. Hence, look up patient feedback and testimonials to find out what they are saying about the surgeon. This is a good way to learn of his bedside manners, too, which are crucial since you need to be comfortable with your surgeon.
