I met with a plastic surgeon who works in a busy well known hospital. I consulted about a MM & asked if I could see some photos of his previous work. He stated that they just do not show photos of the work they do there to protect their clients privacy. I do understand but still feel nervous to go forward without seeing several photos of his work. (Only 2 photos online) I asked if I could get a past referral but the office seemed to hurry me out the door again. Any recommendations or advice?
Answer: Viewing Before and After Pictures of Mommy Makeover You are right to be concerned, it is easy to have patients sign a release that allows their pictures to be shown to prospective patients if they agree. Asking to speak with another patient is also something most surgeons are happy to arrange. Trust your instincts, see more Board Certified Plastic Surgeons until you find one you feel comfortable with! Good luck.

Answer: Plastic surgeon does not show work photos - nervous. Most important for success in having a plastic surgery procedure after the skill of your surgeon, is your trust and confidence in your surgeon. Since you are nervous I would strongly advise that you seek a second opinion from a board certified plastic surgeon. You really need to be comfortable with the surgeon that you choose.

Answer: Before and after photos Thanks for your inquiry. I have a tough time answering this question because I know every surgeon manages his/her practice differently. 1) Pictures are important to understand scar location, contour, and expectations 2) If a patient asks for a past referral/patient to speak to--in my office we would facilitate that conversation and is not an unreasonable request 3) if you have reservations about proceeding please revisit your concerns with your surgeon and explain this important to you, good luck.

Answer: Plastic surgeon does not show work photos - nervous. Thank you for the insightful question. As you know, careful selection of plastic surgeon will be the most important decision patients make when they decide to undergo surgery to achieve a specific outcome. Besides appropriate training and experience (and certification by the American Board of plastic surgery), looking at before/after photographs (and preferably talking to previous patients) can be very helpful in this selection process.
