important decision you can make. As explained in Why choose

your plastic
surgeon for further information about the particular procedure and
what you
expect.
- In addition, please note that all surgery carries some
uncertainty and risk,
including the possibility of infection, bleeding, blood clots, and
adverse
reactions to the anesthesia. You can reduce your risks by choosing
a
qualified plastic surgeon and closely following his or her advice,
both before

Please note:
What should NOT form the criteria for choosing a aesthetic surgeon?
1. Patient before and after photographs alone: In today's world
of advanced photography, these can easily be "touched up" to give a
false impression.
2. Patient referrals: A doctor may have just 10% satisfied
patients but if he refers you to one of those 10%, you never come to
know the fact that 90% are not satisfied. Rather opt for a "Sample"
session. If he is a good aesthetic surgeon, he would never hesitate in
demonstrating his skill to respective patient's realistic
expectations. Leading aesthetic clinics world over have volunteer
patients, who are willing to meet prospective patients. These are good
samaritans, who care to share their experience with other people. They
remember their own situation when they were trying to find and meet
other people who have undergone the treatments.
These both (select before after pictures and select referrals) are
usually marketing gimmicks that have, unfortunately, been used to dupe
a lots of simple minded patients.
