As we have noted on this blog before, it is essential for you to do your research before committing to a plastic surgeon to get the results that you are hoping for. Before you make your final decision, you will need to schedule an appointment and meet with the medical professional, as well as collect references from past patients so you have a good idea as to what you will look like when everything is said and done. Skipping these steps can prove disastrous for you in the long run.

In fact, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), there has been an increase in recent months for requests to fixed botched plastic surgery jobs made by doctors who were not qualified to do the work. According to the organization, there is a growing number of unqualified doctors offering discount plastic surgeries to patients that will then just need to be fixed in the future. The ASPS has launched an online campaign to raise awareness to help people protect themselves.

“Plastic surgery is real surgery and patients need to do their homework before they undergo any plastic surgery procedure,” said ASPS President Scot Glasberg in a press release. “People spend more time selecting the model and color of a car than they do selecting their plastic surgeon. That needs to change.”
