The training and experience of a board-certified facial cosmetic surgeon is vital to the success of your procedure. Board-certified facial plastic surgeons, like Denver’s Dr. Robert G. Fante, are highly trained to minimize and hide scars from face lifts and other facial procedures, and have intensive experience specifically in procedures involving the face and neck.
General cosmetic surgeons are trained to work on a variety of body areas and may not have the specific expertise for cosmetic surgeries of the face and neck only.
· Board-certified facial plastic surgeons are more aware of the latest advances in techniques for face and neck procedures.
· They likely have more experience in terms of the number of individual procedures they have performed on the face and neck, unlike general plastic surgeons who can perform plastic surgery anywhere on the body.
Your expectations are key
Trust is an important issue when choosing the right surgeon for your cosmetic procedure. Meet with your chosen facial cosmetic surgeon and work out a treatment plan that meets your needs and expectations. Don’t be afraid to ask your doctor about his experience in performing your type of surgery! Specifically, ask to see before-and-after pictures of excellent results and poor results as well.
Simple changes to your appearance through cosmetic surgery can vastly affect your self-esteem and have a positive impact on your whole life. But cosmetic surgery should not be undertaken lightly. Facial cosmetic surgery is a serious medical procedure that carries real risks.
