Before going for a liposuction, it is best that you choose a competent and reputable liposuction doctor. Here are 4 steps to find a liposuction doctor.
1. A good liposuction doctor must have a hygienic clinic and surroundings where the liposuction procedure will be performed. Ask the doctor for a tour of his facilities and request explanations about the procedure’s equipment. If his clinic is adjacent to an emergency medical facilities, that is also a bonus point in case any unfortunate event happens. The doctor’s facility should also be accredited.
2. Understand as much as possible about the liposuction procedure that you plan to have. This will give you some ideas what to ask the doctor about the procedure, about the risk, the recovery period and so on.
3. Do not choose only one liposuction doctor. Do some survey and interview a few doctors prior to chose the best. Also get some recommendations from friends or family members who has done liposuction. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons is a good place to find good board certified doctors.
4. Do a background check on your doctor’s experience and his or her credentials. Even though any doctor can perform a liposuction procedure, choosing a doctor who is board certified with extensive training and years of experience is of the essence. A doctor who was trained for at least 6 years in surgical training and experience, and with a minimum of 3 years in cosmetic plastic surgery, is a good choice. The doctor should be certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery® or The Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada®.
Lastly, remember that when choosing a liposuction doctor, there must be no compromise. Besides up to standard facilities provided, the liposuction doctor must be certified and continuously fulfill the medical education requirements as well as the standards and the innovations in patient’s safety.
