Do the best plastic surgeons do fillers and Botox at all or I’m better off looking the best dermatologists instead?

The most important thing is to find a doctor who personally does injections as part of his/her daily practice.  The doctor should be technically proficient but also must possess an artistic eye.  Just because a doctor is a plastic surgeon or dermatologist does not make them a great injector.  Getting a recommendation from other satisfied clients who have been treated might be a good place to start.  Reviews are important too but try to focus on those reviews which seem more authentic without a lot of fluff.Regards,Dr. Ort

Anyone can do any procedure, but can the person doing the procedure handle any possible complication from that procedure?  Risks of filler injection include blindness, vascular necrosis, and injury.  Whereas botox injections can cause unwanted paralysis, eyelid drooping and double vision.  Additionally, if these procedures are not done with the proper technique, infection and granuloma formation are also risks.  The core 4- Dermatology, Plastic Surgery, ENT, and Facial Plastics may be your best option when it comes to Botox and filler injection as it is part of our training during an intense residency program.  Do your own research and ask a lot of questions.  Even the best surgeons will have complications- there are no guarantees in medicine, including cosmetic surgery.
