For breast augmentation surgery, are before and after photos required?

Dear Gdjam,
finding the right Dr. is extremely challenging especially with the number of online platforms and resources available. There a lot of great Dr's available. Make sure he/she is a board-certified plastic surgeon. Definitely check to make sure your choice specializes in the procedure you want and spend the time to read through patient testimonials. There is a number of different sites where you can check for reviews (Realself, yelp, google, etc.).You can always pick up the phone and call around also, find an office you feel comfortable with and set up a few consultations. It is not mandatory to take photos of patients.

I'm sorry for what you have experienced in your past. Before and after photos are helpful in plastic surgery as it allows us to document progress as well as identify concerns. It will be up to the individual surgeon if she/he will require photos in order to proceed with surgery.
