If you are considering breast augmentation, your research should begin with the selection of a surgeon. I would recommend choosing a surgeon who is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. This should provide the comfort of knowing that your surgeon is properly trained and has completed a rigorous testing and screening program. You should then have a complete and thorough consultation with a surgeon before making a decision regarding surgery. You can bring your questions to the consultation and make sure they are answered.
Unfortunately, it is rare for the average patient to have the background and education to allow them to become completely knowledgeable about the procedure based on their research alone. It is therefore important that the surgeon take the time to present all relevant information regarding the procedure including any negatives as well as the positives. You should not feel rushed or pushed to schedule a procedure. Only after being properly informed should you make a decision to proceed with surgery.
I hope this is of some help to you. Good luck and I hope you get a great result from your breast augmentation.
