How to Choose your Plastic Surgeon for Your Tummy Tuck Surgery

  1. 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.

  2. 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?

  3. 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?
