Your plastic surgeon will be better for Radiesse

Hisham Seify, MD, PhD answers: Getting Radiesse from a plastic surgeon or a gynecologist?

My gynecologist offers this treatment, and I trust her. I also have great confidence in the plastic surgeon who did my liposuction. Which would be the safer and better person to do the Radiesse? Will the plastic surgeon try to convince me to have the much more expensive S-Lift? I cannot afford to disappear for a long time, as I have a high profile position.

The modern advances in medicine were acheived by having specialities. Your Gyn give you the Pap smear, your cardiologist checks your heart, your pediatrician takes care of your kids. I'm sure that following a weekend course, I can give Pap smears as well as other services. The question is, should I do this? The problem is not whether you can do a procedure or not , it is whether you can handle all the post procedure issues. Seems to me that your plastic surgeon will be better at this. All the best!
