Any type of cosmetic plastic surgery is a big deal. Plastic surgery is not like how you see it done on TV. Unlike non-surgical procedures such as Botox injections or even laser treatments, plastic surgery is surgical, invasive, and will result in pain. Because of this, it is important to liken plastic surgery to medical surgery as it comes with the same health risks. In order to properly prepare for your breast augmentation surgery it very important to have questions ready for your surgeon and to have these questions answered before performing the surgery.
Find the Right Surgeon
Before any plastic surgery, your first step is to find the right surgeon for you. This surgeon must be properly trained with experience and proper certification. The American Society of Aesthetic Plastic surgery has recently published a press release advising consumers to carefully choose the personnel who administer injections like Botox. There have been many incidents in the recent news of breast augmentations gone wrong that have even lead to death because of unqualified and untrained professionals. For example, a woman in New Jersey is suing her plastic surgeon because of an eyelid procedure that went tragically wrong. The women is now unable to fully closer her eyes, even why she sleeps. This is why the first step is to do you r research and find a plastic surgeon that is qualified, trained with experience and has the proper certifications. This poor women should have certainly chosen a different, qualified, trained, board certified New Jersey plastic surgeon. An easy way to do this is to search “breast augmentation + your city”. For example, if you were looking for a breast augmentation plastic surgeon in New Jersey, you would simple search for “breast augmentation New Jersey”. The results will be overwhelming but it will help you get to where you need to be. Once you have a list of surgeons, you can check their references by either going through ASPS or ASAPS’s “Find a Surgeon” search. The surgeons on the ASPS and ASAPS website are all board certified plastic surgeons with the correct requirements and certification
Research, Research, Research
Breast augmentation surgery is very serious although it is one of the most common and popular procedure. Because of this, it is again important to do your research on breast augmentations, breast implants, your size, things to do before, and what to expect after your surgery. This can also be done with an easy search just to give yourself a guideline of what you would like to be done to your breasts. A great website to go to for questions, information, and answers from patients and plastic surgeons is Realself.com. This website is used by dermatologists, plastic surgeons, dentist, and real people like you with thousands of questions. Compile a list of questions you want further more personal information ready for your surgeon. This list should include questions about breast implant sizes, breast implant types, downtime, medications, recovery time, pain, and what to expect before, during, and after your surgery.
Before and After Gallery
Before calling the plastic surgeons office, another important step is to view your list of surgeons’ websites to see if they have a “before and after” gallery. Plastic surgeons usually have many before and after pictures from their patients they have received permission from on their website. This is important for the surgeon as he shows the type of work he does and the quality of it and it is important for the patient as he/she will be able to decide if the surgeon’s quality of work is exceptional enough for the patient. Another benefit for the patient is that it gives you a realistic idea of what you can expect from the surgery.
One-on-One
Once you’ve researched your surgeons and breast augmentations in your local area, the next thing to do is to compile a list of question you have that you didn’t get answered from the internet or by the website from the plastic surgeon(s) you chose. In this case, take your list of surgeons and your list of questions to each of these surgeons and have your free one-on-one consultation with each surgeon. Most plastic surgeons provide free consultation appointments to answer any question you have about the procedure, questions on your plastic surgeon, or even advice. The most important part of this consultation is vetting your plastic surgeon, ensuring he known what he is talking about, vetting his facilities and his staff, and ensuring you see the certifications and education he has received.
