Why You Should Choose a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
Making the choice to work with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon is important for any patient who is considering plastic surgery! TV shows, TikTok videos, and news feeds are full of reports of ‘botched’ surgical procedures and undesired results from surgeons who are not board certified. This is why patients should always elect to work have cosmetic surgery only from a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon.
Of course, any surgical procedure carries some risks. But moving forward with plastic surgery from a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, such as Dr. Ali at AMAE Plastic Surgery in Birmingham, MI ensures that patients are working with a qualified plastic surgeon who has completed the proper training and education to become a plastic surgeon.
In this article the cosmetic surgery experts at AMAE Plastic Surgery in Birmingham, MI help patients understand the benefits of working with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon.
How A Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Gets Certified
The process for becoming a plastic surgeon takes around sixteen years of higher education. This includes training in specific areas, under the supervision of a qualified plastic surgeon. A Board Certified Plastic Surgeon is a plastic surgeon who has completed all required coursework and criteria to take the boards. And they have completed a written and oral examination. These examinations evaluate the physician’s skill and ethics. It also validates that the physician approaches a procedure safely and effectively.
Why You Should Choose a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
It is important for patients to research their plastic surgeon before making any decisions about the appropriate surgeon to work with. Attaining the status of Board Certified Plastic Surgeon is not easily achieved. Board certification indicates that the plastic surgeon has achieved the highest level of skill, education, and training. This helps ensure that patients will get the results they desire, safely and effectively.
While most plastic surgery procedures are not medically necessary, they can have life altering outcomes if not performed by a skilled surgeon. But as the market for plastic surgery continues to thrive, some physicians are performing cosmetic surgeries without the required skillset or certification. A Board Certified Plastic Surgeon such as Dr. Ali at AMAE Plastic Surgery in Birmingham, MI offers patients peace of mind, knowing that they are working with a skilled physician.
A Board Certified Plastic Surgeon has the certification that confirms he has been extensively trained in facial and body surgical procedures and is equipped to handle emergency situations related to these procedures. It also confirms the surgeon can make technical and aesthetic decisions related to the procedures. The American Board of Plastic Surgery is the only American Board of Medical Specialties recognized to provide certification to surgeons for plastic surgeries.
Confirming Your Surgeon is Board Certified
As with any physician, patients should confirm the plastic surgeon they are potentially going to work with is a right fit by asking as many questions as possible. When interviewing potential plastic surgeons, it is important to verify specifically that the surgeon is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon.
Additionally, to confirm the surgeon is a good fit, patients should also review before and after photos of past operations to confirm the physician’s aesthetic judgement matches their own. Asking questions about the location of procedures is also important, because Board Certified Plastic Surgeons are the only surgeons who can perform operations in state licensed or Medicare certified surgical centers.
