So, I’m now thinking about switching to another surgeon who offers CosmetAssure Insurance which will cover any complications that could occur as a result of my TT.

Cosmetic surgery complications insurance

If you trust your surgeon completely and he/she is competent why would you instead go to a surgeon who you trust less and is as competent or less competent? If you have properly planned surgery and follow all of your surgeons instructions the complication rate is pretty low. It seems strange to me in this day and age when there are more than enough surgeons to go around we all have to differentiate ourselves from the competition. Now we can differentiate ourselves by saying we have insurance... more
