5 Important Questions For Your Surgeon 5 Important Questions For Your Surgeon - What are my options, from non-surgical to surgical, to help with this problem?
- How much experience do you have for performing this particular procedure? Can I see pictures of the work you’ve done? (An honest doctor will tell you that 3%-5% of scars are bad scars. He should also show you a range of results – average, wows and not-so-good results.)
- What is your background? Where did you train?
- Have you been the subject of any malpractice suits? (In our litigious society, the average plastic surgeon
is sued once every three years.) - What can I expect from the procedure? (If you’re a 60-year-old woman and a doctor tells you he’s going to make you look 30, walk out the door. He’s lying to you. The honest answer is that you’re still going to look 60, but a better-looking 60.)
