Beauty and the beast of regulation

When choosing a physician to do these surgeries one must look at a number of criteria. The American Board of Cosmetic Surgery (ABCS) is an organization that upholds a set of standards for training in cosmetic surgery in the United States. Consequently, when choosing a cosmetic surgeon it is wise to investigate if he or she is certified by the ABCS for best results. Beyond educational training and certification, a patient should research how often a cosmetic surgeon has performed a particular procedure. However, keep in mind that the number of times, and how recently, a procedure had been performed does not make up for lack of standardized monitoring or accredited formal education and licensure.
