Plastic Surgeon Location- Does Location Matter???

Many people think that plastic surgery is best performed in highly affluent areas such as Beverly Hills, Newport Beach, and New York City. Perspective cosmetic patients have preconceived ideas that these cities are the hot beds for this type of surgery. What they don’t understand is that their local community plastic surgeons may perform cosmetic surgery as well, or better than surgeons located in these areas.

Patients should do the appropriate research for their cosmetic surgeons. There are many surgeons right in their communities that are extremely qualified to perform their cosmetic surgery. Board Certified Plastic Surgeons are all trained well and have the expertise to perform these surgeries.

Patients should do the homework prior to selecting their surgeon. Patients should evaluate their doctor’s credentials, their Board Certification and their experience. By visiting the surgeon, the patient must be comfortable with the surgeon. Prices will vary depending on location. An experienced competent surgeon will not be the cheapest in town.
