How To Determine If Your Plastic Surgeon is Right For You
The best plastic surgeon for you is the one that you can trust. Remember that you are paying this individual a lot of money to perform a service for you so there is no reason for you to put up with patronizing talk or unpleasant comments about your body. As in any situation, trust your gut instincts. If the doctor does not seem to be listening to you or answering your questions then that may be a red flag that you are just another cash cow for him or her. Also if you feel at all humiliated in any way that is your cue to get out of the situation and find another doctor.
Apart from having the innate sense that you can trust this individual the plastic surgeon should also be able to thoroughly answer the following questions in a clear, concise and thorough manner.
§How much can I expect to pay for this procedure? §Do you offer financing or must it all be paid upfront? §Will my surgery be performed in your office or a hospital? §Does your facility have surgical accreditation and if so through what organization? §Do you have hospital admitting privileges? If so, with which hospitals? §How many times have you performed this procedure? §What complications can I expect from the operation? §What percentage of your patients suffer from complications after surgery? §In your practice, what is the most complication of this surgery? §Is this invasive or non-invasive plastic surgery? If it is invasive then can you please show me where the incision sites will be? §Does the procedure require an anesthesia? If so do you use a certified anesthesiologist or a nurse anesthetist (CRNA)? §What type of anesthetic or anesthesia
is required for the procedure - twilight or full anesthesia? §What medications must I stop taking prior to surgery? §What herbal medications must I stop taking prior to surgery? §How long is the average recovery time for this procedure. §How will any bruising, bleeding, swelling or inflammation be treated? §Will I have to take antibiotics? §What type of painkillers or medications will I be prescribed for pain management? §Are any of these medications dangerous or addictive? §What are the side effects of these medications? §How soon after this procedure can I resume my normal activities? §How soon after this procedure can I resume exercise or exert myself. §How soon after this procedure can I resume sexual relations? §If the work fails in anyway will you redo the work at no extra expense? If not what is the expense? §If the procedure has to be redone, will you use the same incision or will a new incision have to be made. §Are there any vitamins or supplements that I should avoid after surgery? §What do you suggest that I do so that my incisions and bruising heals faster? §Are postoperative visits free or is there a charge for them?
It is also a good idea to bring someone else along with you on your consult so that they can also help you assess the situation in general and assist you in remembering to pay attention to your self care after anesthesia.
