Default How to Find a Liposuction Surgeon You Can Trust - 05-15-2013, 02:29 PM

Stories of liposuctions surgery going awry abound throughout the United States. Patients seeking deeply discounted treatments often end up with results that reflect the price they were willing to pay for their procedure. Though every patient wants to save a few bucks on their liposuction surgery if possible, it’s important that patients realize that the cost of liposuction must be balanced up against the probability that they’ll get the results they really want. Unfortunately, news stories regularly demonstrate the fact that many patients fail to do the requisite homework and end up with botched surgeries even though there are tried and true methods that can be used to find a liposuction surgeon who is trustworthy.
One of the most important things to remember when searching for a trustworthy liposuction surgeon is the fact that you can’t simply shop for surgery on the basis of cost alone. A super-cheap surgery will likely yield super-cheap-looking results and perhaps even worse. Rather than getting something for practically nothing, patients who shop for the cheapest liposuction surgery often end up paying more than the average patient to have the botched job redone by a “real” surgeon. A quick search online can reveal a number of results of patients who had to have surgery done to repair a procedure that ended with infection, scarring, or even disfigurement.
Desperation can lead people into the wrong hands when it comes to liposuction surgery. Though the procedure seems simple enough, there is a great deal of skill involved in achieving aesthetically appealing outcomes. Doctors must sculpt the targeted areas on the body to blend and complement the other parts of a patient’s physique. This takes skill and experience as well as training and unfortunately, very few patients quiz their liposuction surgeon about their history and background in performing this type of operation. Doctors who are not board certified or capable of demonstrating membership in a reputable plastic surgery association may not be a good choice for liposuction surgery.
Patients who are concerned about finding a liposuction surgeon who is trustworthy will do the necessary research to narrow down their options and then set up an initial consultation with each of these professionals. But how do you find a liposuction surgeon you can trust by searching online? You begin by finding a plastic surgeon who belongs to a reputable organization such as the American Society of Plastic Surgeons or the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. These organizations have certain requirements for membership and therefore patients know that if they choose a plastic surgeon who belongs to one of these organizations that their plastic surgeon will have the skills, experience, and training to successfully perform the procedure.
In addition to finding a plastic surgeon who is board certified and a member of a reputable plastic surgery association, patients need to meet with their liposuction surgeon and do an initial consultation to determine whether or not they feel comfortable with the doctor. Once a patient has found a doctor who has skills and experience as well as a personality-type that they can work with it’s time to schedule the surgery.
