When looking for a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon who specializes in facial surgery, it is important to do your homework. This means checking the doctor’s website and various doctor rating sites, speaking to professionals and ex-patients familiar with his work and, finally, having a consultation. While having a prestigious address in Beverly Hills and being affiliated with a University and various societies looks impressive, it is more important that you get a sense that the doctor understands what your goal is and that he can actually carry it out. Even if the doctor has operated on some celebrities, appeared on numerous talk shows or has edited a book on Facial Plastic Surgery (many recent grads seem to be doing that these days), it is important that you get a sense that he can deliver what you specifically expect. And don’t be talked into having a facial procedure, which you have not researched, added on to other procedures which you have. The facial plastic surgeon should be able to go over, in detail, what he would do to reach your endpoint and should be able to show you many “before & after’s” which exemplify his abilities to “walk his talk”.
