Why Choose a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon VS A Surgeon performing Plastic Surgery?

There is currently no regulating body in the United States that limits which physicians can perform cosmetic surgery. This frequently comes as a shock to patients.
A board certified plastic surgeon is a physician who, after completing medical school, endures extensive training in cosmetic as well as reconstructive plastic surgery for many years. During those years, surgeons training at nationally accredited programs, learn cutting edge techniques for a wide variety of surgical and non-surgical procedures along with learning how to manage surgical patients, and at times, surgical complications. Many of these top-tier training programs are in major cities that are referral centers for larger surrounding areas.
