The least expensive cosmetic surgery procedure can be life threatening! I’m sure you’ve read in the news and heard on TV that there are certain places where safety is not the most important factor! Actually it seems to be the least important of everything that should be taken into consideration when someone is having a major surgical procedure.
Choosing the least expensive surgeon or surgery center rather than the most experienced and most qualified can be a life threatening decision. There are factors that should be taken into consideration:
Surgeon – Qualifications (Board Certification) and experience with particular surgical procedures.
Place – Hospital, certified Surgery Center or Quad A (AAAA) certified Office Surgery Facility with adequate staff and equipment.
Staff - Experienced surgical team, Board Certified Anesthesiologist for surgery procedures performed under general anesthesia or sedation.
You should make sure that the surgeon has a good reputation with no excessive complications attributed to his surgery practice! The surgeon should be board certified and knowledgeable on your particular procedure. Be sure that your surgeon has admitting privileges at nearby hospitals in case of life threatening complications that may require hospitalization.
DO NOT be surprised to find out that prices for some procedures, in particular those more expensive ones (face, nose, and breast) vary significantly from surgeon to surgeon. In general, the more experienced the surgeon (one with a good reputation and overall good results) may charge for his surgical fee significantly more then one who just started or who has little qualifications (dermatologist, OBGYN, family physician, surgeon of other specialty other then plastic surgery).
Unfortunately when it comes to complications, and it may happen even in the most experienced hands, you’ll then see who your surgeon is and what kind of medicine he/she practices.
