How to research a Cosmetic Surgeon

In order to select a qualified surgeon, experienced with breast implantation, you should ask the following questions:
How many breast augmentation or reconstruction implantation procedures does he/she perform per year?
How many years has he/she performed breast implantation procedures?
Is he/she board certified, and if so, with which board?
In which states is he/she licensed to practice surgery? Note that some states provide information on disciplinary action and malpractice claims/settlements to prospective patients either by request or on the World Wide Web.
What is the most common complication he/she encounters with breast implantation?
What is his/her reoperation rate with breast implantation and what is the most common type of reoperation he/she performs?
The answers to these questions should provide key information in evaluating the technical qualifications of your surgeon.
