When you seek out the best plastic surgeons in Miami, you are getting more than technical expertise. Plastic surgery is an incredibly nuanced procedure that not only calls for a mastery of the scalpel and a keen eye for aesthetics – it also requires these professionals to provide ongoing emotional and physical support for patients before and after their procedures. 

Recently, the Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery-Global Open®, a digital medical journal operated by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), featured an article on the many levels of plastic surgeon-patient dynamics, and how vital they are to ensuring optimum results after liposuction.

“Long-term experience has shown the importance of close attention to detail-from good communication between the doctor and patient, to the technical aspects of the procedure, to postoperative care and attention to a healthy lifestyle after liposuction,” an ASPS press release states. 

Among the elements of a liposuction procedure that are essential for effective patient care are the following:

• Comprehensive evaluation and plan before procedure
• Monitoring during procedure
• Technical knowledge of body contouring and management of complications
• Post-op care during recovery and guidance regarding lifestyle.

Just as you will continue to reap the benefits of your Miami liposuction well after the day you go under the knife, you also must work to obtain these results by maintaining a healthy body weight through diet and exercise. Dr. Christopher Craft is an experienced and board-certified plastic surgeon who is invested in the long-term satisfaction of his patients, and will help you make the best choices to make the most of your plastic surgery.
