Making Sure Your Surgeon is Qualified

Healthcare providers who are performing plastic surgery may not be qualified. Being a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) means that the surgeon is trained and certified in all types of cosemtic and reconstructive procedures. When you choose an ASPS Member, you are insuring that there has been a minimum of 3 years training in plastic surgery after at least 6 years of surgical training. The surgeon also continues medical education requirements and only operates in an accredited facility.
