COSMETIC SURGERY:
--What types of doctors perform cosmetic surgery?
A: There are many qualified doctors from various specialties that perform cosmetic surgery. Plastic Surgery, Dermatology, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, ENT, Facial Plastic Surgery, Ophthalmology and other types of surgeons perform cosmetic procedures. Some specialties can mislead the public by indicating that their particular are of practice is the most qualified to perform cosmetic surgery. Again, all the specialties mentioned above have contributed significant advancements to the field of cosmetic surgery. There are excellent doctors all over the world in all the above specialized fields who have the experience and patient results to support their qualifications. Although any doctor can legally perform cosmetic facial surgery, it is not the degree that is the qualification. You would not let your pediatrician or psychiatrist perform a facelift even though they are a medical doctor. It is the training of the doctor. For instance, Dermatologists have added much progress to cosmetic surgery with the development of tumescent liposuction and lasers. Oral and maxillofacial surgeons pioneered and developed many head and neck cosmetic procedures as did ENT doctors. Ophthalmologists have defined the anatomy and techniques for many cosmetic eye procedures. To say that these doctors are not qualified is simply untrue.
