…And Why Board-Certified Surgeons are the Way to Go.

Results from a
study on medical-beauty procedures show that last year’s top contender,
liposuction, dropped to second place just behind
breast augmentation. Even better, 86% of all
patients raved about their outcomes. With this high rating, find out what it takes to ensure a safe and satisfied treatment.
The popularity of this cosmetic procedure is bringing in a new wave of women looking to get breast implants. So now, it’s more important than ever to know what measures to take when learning about breast surgery.
Here are three vitals steps you can take in the process.
STEP 1: FIND A BOARD-CERTIFIED PLASTIC SURGEON
The most important part of your breast augmentation is choosing your surgeon. The best options out there are
plastic surgeons that are board-certified by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. There are also board-certified
cosmetic surgeons, but their training is not the same extensive training and experience that most board-certified
plastic surgeons have.
Also, reading patient reviews and looking at the surgeon’s
before and after gallery will help you to make a more comfortable decision.
STEP 2: DON’T HESITATE TO ASK QUESTIONS
You also have a lot of say regarding your breast augmentation, so don’t hesitate to ask your surgeon any questions that you may have. The size, type, and placement of your implants are all decisions that you will have to make with the guidance of a skilled physician. It is important to make informed decisions so that you will feel more comfortable moving on with your surgery.
STEP 3: LISTEN TO YOUR SURGEON
Last but not least, it is necessary to understand how important it is to follow your surgeon’s pre and post-procedure guidelines. These guidelines are given to you to ensure your safety during both your surgery and recovery and to best provide for the results that you are looking for.
Remember, your surgeon is your partner during your breast surgery. Choose wisely, ask questions, and listen to their directions. Following these three steps will help ensure that your augmentation goes smoothly.
