Choosing the Right Plastic Surgeon: A Comprehensive Guide

Plastic surgery is permanent, so whenever you're choosing a plastic surgeon, you want to take your time and research. At Hamilton Surgical Arts, serving Noblesville, Fishers, Indianapolis, and Westfield, IN, we would like to explain how to choose and note we have the experts Dr. Robert Jackson, Dr. Chris Lowery, Dr. Sarah Young, and Dr. Emily Lo at our practice. 

Look at Education and Experience

 Make sure you take a look at your potential providers’ experience and education. Did they train in plastic surgery or in the area of the body where you’re getting a procedure, specifically? Is there any subcategory within the kind of procedure you’re interested in that they have particularly trained for, or do they have any useful related skills? Does what you’re looking for usually require advanced training, or have your prospective providers kept up with recent developments that may significantly change the patient experience?

Read Reviews 

 Once you have a few names of surgeons you feel would complete the job the way you desire, take a look at reviews. See what previous patients are saying about the results they received with a plastic surgeon who serves Noblesville, Fishers, Indianapolis, and Westfield, IN. 

See if They're Board Certified 

 Board certification is an extra step a cosmetic surgeon receives to show their competency in the subject. It's a comprehensive test that indicates the surgeon went the extra mile to demonstrate their experience. Many providers are also members of professional organizations or are certified in additional areas.

Schedule a Consultation With a Few 

 A consultation doesn't lock you into a procedure with that practitioner. Therefore, if you've narrowed down your options to two or three surgeons, schedule consultations with each one. Discuss their technique and how many times they've performed your surgery in the past. Take a look at some before and afters. If possible, request before and afters of your particular procedure, so you have an idea of what you can expect.

Make sure you ask any questions you have that can help you compare your options. Also, take a mental note of how you felt during the consultation. Did you feel confident and comfortable? Were your questions answered thoroughly?
