Difference Between Facial Plastic Surgeon or Plastic Surgeon and an ENT or Otolaryngologist?

What the difference is between an ear nose and throat doctor and a facial plastic surgeon or plastic surgeon? Can an ENT perform a nose job? **Note from RealSelf** Our site is designed to help consumers make confident choices and the below answers have lost this spirit. To see the criteria RealSelf uses to list a doctor as a Facial Plastic Surgeon, please visit our Professional Policies.  Doctors listed as a 'Facial Plastic Surgeon' on RealSelf are eligible to discuss treatments and procedures for any "neck-up" procedures, including those of the face, ear, nose and throat areas.  As always, consumers should do their due-diligence in researching an individual doctors experience and credentials when choosing their surgeon.
