Cosmetic Surgery: Pre-Consultation Checklist

By Elise Burrows

Cosmetic surgery is the art of remolding the appearance of particular body parts by qualified surgeons. Commonly individuals like to alter their breast, ears, eyes, face, hair, nose and abdomens. For the breasts, normal cosmetic surgery includes augmenting, reducing or remolding the breasts. Eye surgery includes adjusting drooping upper eyelids or taking away puffy bags beneath the eyes. Usually, facial cosmetic surgery involves getting rid of facial wrinkles, creases and acne scars; or changing the shape of the nose. It also includes getting rid of fats from the tummy.

As cosmetic surgery entails a major decision-making process, it is crucial to choose a doctor that you trust. Select a doctor that has finished at least five years of surgical training and at least 2 years in plastic surgery. Pick Out one who is a trained and experienced surgeon that operates only in authorized aesthetic clinics. Be observant to the doctor's persona and whether he sticks to a strict code of ethics. And lastly, always make sure that your doctor places your safety first.

This checklist will do as your guide during your cosmetic surgery consultation:

1. Is the doctor qualified?

2. Is the doctor educated and trained specifically in the field of plastic surgery?

3. How many years of plastic surgery training has the doctor had?

4. Are you sure that the procedure you are about to get fits you?

5. What will be expected of you to get the best results?

7. What is the appropriate surgical technique recommended for me?

9. What are the dangers and complications associated with the operation?

10. What are your options if you are dissatisfied with the cosmetic surgery?
