American Society of Plastic Surgeons and American Board Of Plastic Surgery

Small irregularities after rhinoplasty surgery may be magnified by long distances. In general, if you are looking for a good rhinoplasty specialist, you should view a robust before and after Gallery, and many patient positive reviews. Additionally, somebody who performs 75 to 100 rhinoplasties per year is most likely to give good care. I hope this helps! Sincerely, Dr Joseph

You can call the American society of plastic surgery and they should be able to sort this out for you. The surgeon may be certified by the Mexican board of plastic surgery.? Also check to see if the surgeon has a US license. He may be totally legit but you need to do more research

Revision rhinoplasty is the most difficult operation to perform correctly in the entire field of cosmetic surgery, so you really need to be looking for a U.S. based rhinoplasty specialist. A double board-certified ENT facial plastic surgeon would be an excellent choice. You should seek out your care inside the United States, since we have seen many poorly performed rhinoplasty procedures from that country

People play games with titles and certifications all the time.
This includes joining organizations like the American board of cosmetic surgery, which requires no residency training.
People are either certified or not certified by the American board of plastic surgery.
If the person‘s name is not on the registered then they are not certified.
They may be certified in another medical specialty in the United States, and they may be board-certified in plastic surgery in Mexico by Mexican standards.
Board certification should be an absolute minimum, but is hardly sufficient to confirm that someone has skill and experience.
I generally do not recommend people travel long distances for elective surgical procedures.
Anybody considering rhinoplasty surgery should have in person consultations with multiple providers before selecting a surgeon.
These are complex procedures with a high revision rate that are difficult to do well on a consistent basis.
Provider selection is critical for consistent quality outcomes when it comes to rhinoplasty surgery.
Rhinoplasty surgery is considered one of the more complex and difficult procedures and most plastic service will agree with this.
I do not believe you can properly select providers by using your computer or cell phone.
Finding the right provider requires having multiple in person consultations.
