Liposuction body sculpting and fat reduction surgery has been around for almost four decades. Over the years, the procedure has become less invasive and more effective.

However, the skill and experience of the operating surgeon continue to have the maximum impact on the final results. Therefore, it is important for patients to choose the best possible surgeon for liposuction carefully.

Ideally, a liposuction plastic surgery candidate should have a clear idea about all facets of the procedure and the background of the surgeon performing it.

A well-informed patient will be better placed to make judicious decisions and will usually accomplish higher levels of satisfaction from the outcomes of the procedure.

Things to Consider

Prior to seeking an appropriate surgeon for their needs, the patient should create a checklist of questions, which will help them determine their choice of surgeon. While patients understandably want to choose a surgeon with the right credentials and experience, they will also want to identify a surgeon whose fees are suitable to their budget.

Understanding the surgeon’s bedside manner is also essential. Are they seeking a friendly surgeon who will be with them at every step of the procedure or someone who has a more clinical and business-like outlook to the process?

Would the patient want to work with a cosmetic surgeon who provides guidance on the most suitable procedure or one who will do exactly as asked of them? It is important to assess these factors before consulting a surgeon to avoid being overly influenced by that doctor’s personal style.

The patient should evaluate how they would like their potential surgeon to answer the following questions. This will help them choose a surgeon who is most suitable for their particular needs.
