What should I look for in a plastic surgeon?

Question

Please only respond with answers to the questions I ask. I've thought this through.
I have a receding chin. I want to get mentoplasty, and I'm looking for docotors in the RI area. I don't even know where to begin. Do some doctors have a payment plan, or do you need the money all up front?

Answer 1

You need do alot of information searching. Find in the Yellow Pages the Plastic Surgeons in your area, then I would go to the American Medical Assoc website and search the doctor. Most plastic surgeons will have you come in for your first visit for like $20. When and if you do go see the surgeon, ask a massive amount of questions including, how many of this type of procedure have you done, what has been the infection rate of your patients, do you have any complaints against your practice, and if you decide to proceed with the surgery then you need to ask the What if's, what if I am unhappy with the way the surgery turns out. Good luck.

Answer 2

Most plastic surgeons do have a payment plan. You usually have to put a deposit up front then you start making payments. As for finding a doctor. Go to the American Board of Plastic Surgeons (I think that's what it's called, and look for doctors in your area. That way you know the docotr is good.
