How to Choose your Plastic Surgeon for Your Tummy Tuck
Surgery
- Is your Plastic Surgeon Certified by the American Board
of Plastic Surgeons (ABPS)? You are able to check your
Plastic Surgeon's Certification on the American Board of
Plastic Surgeons at www.plasticsurgery.org.
Is your plastic surgeon certified by the American Society for Aesthetic
Plastic Surgery? Your surgeon should have privileges at a
hospital should the need for hospitalization arise.
- Does your Plastic Surgeon listen, understand your goals
and wishes and is realistic about what can be achieved and
what cannot be improved or minimally improved in your
individual situation?
- Look at the before and after pictures and ask how many
tummy tucks does the Plastic Surgeon perform during a week
or month. Are there pictures of many different types of
abdomens and is there one similar to yours? How are the
results?
