Generally speaking, a surgeon of few words isn’t going to get high ratings in the bedside manner category. During the consultation process, you want someone who will give you an honest assessment, lay out all the treatment options, and take the time to address every question you may have. Chatty always beats out reserved in a doctor’s office.<\/p>

But sometimes, when you’re just starting to look into a procedure and want to quickly sort through all the noise, a short, to-the-point answer can be refreshing. Imagine you’re riding the elevator with a top plastic surgeon. “I’m thinking about getting a facelift<\/a>—any advice?” you ask, right as you reach their floor. The pressure’s on: they have seconds to think and offer their best piece of wisdom before the doors close. Here’s what 10 RealSelf Verified doctors<\/a> from across the country would tell you—in 10 words or less.<\/p>
