The single most important factor in the success of your plastic surgery is the surgeon that you choose. That is why you need to know about the training and experience of your plastic surgeon.

In order to be board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, one must graduate from an accredited medical school, complete a surgical internship and residency training, complete an approved residency in plastic and reconstructive surgery, practice a minimum of two years after graduation, and pass extensive written and oral exams which include a review of all cases done by that surgeon in the past year! This is an incredibly long and tedious process, usually taking a minimum of 7 1/2 years after graduation from medical school!

While many people feel that plastic surgeons spend all of their time doing noses and liposuction, that is far from the case. The reason for such extensive training is that the plastic surgeon is one of the few medical specialists who is called upon to help with every part of the body. From brain surgery, to cleft lip in infants, ear, throat, breast, and all other areas. There is really no body part that plastic surgeons aren't called upon to fix when other surgeons run up against difficult situations.

Many Plastic Surgeons focus their practices on Cosmetic Surgery and others on Reconstructive Surgery. For this reason, it is important to ask about the type of cases that a particular surgeon focuses on. They are going to be more experienced in areas they focus upon.

Another good place to explore is the American Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons. To be a Member, a surgeon must have completed training in an accredited program and be Board Certified. This society comprises 97 percent of all plastic surgeons certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery!

The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons consists of Board Certified Plastic Surgeons who specialize in cosmetic surgery. This is also a good place to look for the credentials of your doctor.

One of the most prestigious organizations in medicine, is The American College Of Surgeons. In order to be a Fellow of The American College of Surgeons (FACS), a surgeon must be board certified in his or her specialty, have practiced a minimum of one year after board certification, and passed a review of clinical work, academic work and ethics!

Dr. Studin is outstanding! From the minute I entered the practice to my post-op appointment, my experience was exceptional! He called me personally on the night after surgery, his nurse did as well, both giving me their cell phone numbers if I needed anything. My recovery was well-managed and explained in detail. I won't go to any other doctor for aesthetic solutions! He is patient-centered and an incredible physician. His anesthesiologist, nurses, and staff are born to do this work! They make every patient feel like family. I felt like the only patient being cared for and walked out feeling very special and new and improved! I highly recommend this practice. read more
