In the U.S, there are roughly 6,000 practicing plastic surgeons, and the vast majority

are members of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. Membership, like most other organizations, requires a fee, and any physician is allowed membership status.

 

Top Plastic Surgeons Special Interest

The reality is no one plastic surgeon will master every condition or procedure, rather

 most choose to focus on a specialty area of interest and expertise. Find a plastic surgeon who meets your criteria and medical needs is vital to the successful outcome of any cosmetic surgical procedure(s). 

 

While the most common field for plastic surgeons is “cosmetic surgery,” many other fields are to be considered when searching for the right medical specialists, including:  

 

* Otolaryngology (facial/head)

* Plastic Surgery (entire body)

* Opthalmology  (facial/around eyes)

* Dermatology    (mostly facial limitations)

 

Though very limited, “Urology” and “Obstetrics & Gynecology” surgeons sometimes do perform cosmetic surgical procedures.

 

Urology -

These surgeons specialize on the male reproductive organs, and the urinary tract of both men and women. Cosmetic enhancements performed by urologists include: adult male circumcision, penis enlargement, penis lengthening, phalloplasty, penis girth enhancement, etc.

 

Obstetrics & Gynecology -

These surgeons specialize on the female reproductive organs, and perform cosmetic procedures such as female genital cosmetic surgery: vaginoplasty, hymenoplasty, labiaplasty, etc.

 

When selecting the right plastic surgeon , the general guideline is to find ones devotes 75% or more of his/her practice on treating your particular condition and surgical procedure. A review of a physicians’ entire history, credentials, and years of experience regarding a particular surgical procedure can determine the level of quality care.

 

How To Top Find Top Rated Plastic Surgeons

 

You can easily search the Internet and find hundreds of thousands of websites that claim to have the top plastic surgeons in their database. However, take your time to research a plastic surgeon, including uncovering all aspects regarding their professional background. Instead of relying on websites where doctors pay to be listed, or sites that solely rely of advertising dollars, individuals are encouraged to conduct a full background check, which usually includes the medical doctor’s rating, nationwide

licensor status, and  comprehensive report regarding the doctor’s professional credential history.

 

In some cases, top plastic surgeons have invested in new and innovative technologies, which in turn has allowed physicians plastic surgeons to establish accredited outpatient facilities. These facilities are found to be as safe as surgery performed in hospitals.

What to look for in a plastic surgeon:

• He or she is board certified in his/her field of practice
• Has affiliations with hospitals or other prestigious memberships
• Is fellowship-trained in his/her field or double board-certified
• Has or had teaching duties at hospitals or other institutions
• Won awards or honors, which can be verified
