How To Find The Best Plastic Surgeon In Phoenix, AZ

Many people are unhappy with their appearance with almost 1.8 million cosmetic surgical procedures carried out in the US last year, not to mention the 15.7 minimally invasive procedures such as chemical peels and laser hair removal.

When looking for the best plastic surgeons in Phoenix, it can be a challenge to know which ones will provide both an outstanding experience and results, especially when many are claiming to offer the same services.

Luckily, we’ve put together this simple guide to understand how to recognize when a surgeon has the training and experience to offer exceptional treatments.

Understanding Training & Experience of Your Plastic Surgeon

One of the most essential things to do when looking for a plastic surgeon is to check they’re Board Certified and a member of a reputable organization such as The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). Don’t get confused by other official-sounding names as they must be recognized by the ABMS – the American Board of Medical Specialties. Please note that there are no certifying boards currently recognized which have ‘cosmetic surgery’ in their name.

What does it mean to be a member of the ASPS?

  • The surgeon is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS).
  • Surgeons have completed medical school, a minimum of both 6 years of surgical training, and 3 years of residency training in plastic surgery.
  • They must have passed all written and oral exams required, as well as graduating from an accredited medical school.
  • Surgeons must participate in their ongoing education, including patient safety every year.
  • Members must adhere to a strict code of ethics.
  • All surgery must be performed in an accredited facility which is Medicare-certified or state-licensed.
