Specializes in Plastic Surgery

Plastic Surgery : The desire for plastic surgery comes from the patient and its the doctor's job to make sure expectations can be met and that the patient is realistic about what can be done. If there is a match, then go for it. And in reality, plastic surgery (cosmetic) is a luxury, plain and simple. There are no 'arguments' for and against plastic surgery.

Many factors:1, 2 &3: 1) have you done your best to improve the conditions for which you seek treatment using proper diet, exercise, and hygiene or maintenance? 2) are you educated about realistic expectations? 3) have you sought consultations with respected, experience, qualified and board certified plastic surgeons? 4) have you been made aware or educated about risks, alternatives, and benefits? I wish you the best!
