How To Choose The Right Plastic Surgeon
As someone who is exploring the possibility of undergoing a particular cosmetic surgical procedure in Toronto, it is important that you can rely on someone you completely trust. This is regardless of whether the procedure is invasive or not. Because a change will be made to your body, you need to have the confidence that the person performing the treatment knows what they’re doing.
Experience, experience, experience!
When it comes to selecting a physician, let alone any medical professional, experience is paramount.
Experience is about how many, how often, and how recently.
While it may be beneficial to know how long a surgeon has been performing surgical procedures in general, it is more important to know how many the surgeon performed that are of the specific procedure you wish to undergo.
The experience of a surgeon can also be reviewed in terms of how frequently a particular procedure has been performed in their professional career. Surgeons performing procedures once a month may not be viewed as favourably as one that performs 4 times a week.
Further, because the field of cosmetic surgery is constantly being updated and improved with numerous technological advancements and innovative techniques, find out how recently a surgeon has performed the selected procedure. If a surgeon has performed liposuction 100 times 5 years ago and not a single one in the last few months, their knowledge and ability may not be as current as a surgeon who has performed several liposuction procedures in the last week alone.
Educational Background & Training
But don’t think that a doctor’s education and training stops there. The medical field is far from static; it constantly changes and adapts as new technologies, advancements and techniques are discovered. As a result, learning is a life-long process for every doctor and surgeon. Be suspicious of any medical professional that does not keep up-to-date in their area of specialization. They should have evidence of having attended workshops, seminars, or other professional training courses.
But on top of that, what better way to affirm a surgeon’s abilities than to know they have trained one or more other physicians in the procedure you wish to undergo? If a surgeon’s abilities are so trusted that another surgeon chooses to learn and seek guidance from them, it may mean that you can trust them, too.
Although physicians are not a designated category in the CPSO, they are all physicians who should be member in good standing of the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO), which self-regulates the medical profession in the province.
