One of the main problems that patients encounter when choosing a professional to undergo a cosmetic surgery operation is to know if he/she has the corresponding qualifications, that is to say, if he/she is dealing with a plastic surgeon. Intrusiveness and poor results are one of the main reasons why a patient distrusts.
The first thing you should know is that in Spain there is only one official and approved degree with the title of “Medical Specialist in Plastic, Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery”. From there, you should ask your specialist for the title. You can also do a simple search in the Spanish Society of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery (SECPRE), which is the group of specialists in this sector, on this website www.secpre.org you can locate the surgeon by the province in which you are located.
In the first consultation you should explain your objective, your doubts and fears. Your plastic surgeon has to listen to you, take note of your background, explain what the intervention consists of, how to proceed -before, during and after-, solve all your doubts and fears, and advise you as to the technique or procedure most favorable for you. He/she will also explain the possible complications and their solutions.
It is important that this first visit is made by a plastic surgeon, and not by a commercial one, since it is a medical visit (not a commercial one) and requires an examination, taking measurements and technical explanations.
Another reason to be sure of the decision is to have evidence of their professionalism and to be able to see cases in which they have been able to respond to the needs of their patients.
Make sure that your procedure will be performed in a hospital center, or in a clinic where everything necessary for a possible emergency or urgent situation is available.
