How long does it take to become a plastic surgeon?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If all goes as planned...and you do not have to repeat anything along the way...in general...four years of undergraduate work, four years of general medical school training...five to six years of general surgical training...and one to two more of sub-specialty / fellowship training. What's that, about 15 or so? That's of course, after successfully completing 13 years of K-12! 28 years of working hard and doing your best, ...doing well enough on the many tests along the way, ...and sticking with it, even when you felt you could not. Good Luck with your journey, wherever you are at on it... This is a different jeff, but it sounds as though the person above is trying to put people off becoming a plastic surgeon ...very lame. If you really want to become a plastic surgeon... go for it...don't let anyone hold you back or put you off.

What classes in high school and college should you take to be a plastic surgeon?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Since a plastic surgeon is a doctor, it would be best to take academically rigorous classes - 4 years of English, 4 years of science, etc. Good luck! Know you chemistry, calculous, and biology. I'm in college right now and those are the most challenging courses that usually weed people out when they wan't to persue medical school. If you don't do well in these classes when you first get into college, it's easy to get discouraged. GO FOR IT!

How young is to young to get a nose job?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

While nose jobs are performed on people of all ages, most plastic surgeons do not perform nose jobs before the age of 16 for girls and 18 for boys. Plastic surgeons usually wait for facial growth to be complete before performing a nose job on a teenager.

Why would a teenage want or need a nose job? Self-image and appearance are very important to teenagers. Images in magazines and on television have increased the pressure for teens to look like Hollywood actors and actresses. Most plastic surgeons agree that teenagers should wait to get plastic surgery, unless they had cosmetic trauma to the nose (which impacts the proportion of the nose to the rest of the face) or the function is impaired. Even still, parents should talk to their teen about their concerns and try to address their real issues, such as fitting-in and looking good compared to their peers, before they consider a nose job. If a nose job is necessary, make sure you have researched the benefits and risks with a plastic surgeon. Also consider using a surgeon that works with children frequently and relates well to your child. Consult your family doctor for a referral.

Additional things to consider:

* Is the problem cosmetic or functional? A cosmetic issue may be eliminated after some additional growing. A functional issue, like a deviated septum, may require the procedure. Discuss your options with your surgeon.

  • Is your teen seeking approval and perfection? Your child may not be a good candidate for a nose job. One procedure may not be enough and they may continue to seek out perfection by considering other cosmetic procedures.

How expensive is laser skin resurfacing?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The cost of laser skin resurfacing can vary widely depending on several factors, including the type of laser used, the location of the treatment facility, the extent of the area being treated, and the expertise of the healthcare provider. On average, you can expect to pay anywhere from $500 to $3,000 per treatment session.

Non-ablative laser treatments, which are less invasive and require fewer sessions, tend to be on the lower end of the price range, while ablative laser treatments, which are more intensive and may necessitate more sessions, can be at the higher end.

It's important to note that multiple sessions may be required to achieve the desired results, and some individuals may require ongoing maintenance treatments. Additionally, the cost may include consultation fees, pre-treatment medications, and post-treatment care products.

To get an accurate estimate for your specific needs and location, it's best to consult with a qualified dermatologist or plastic surgeon who can assess your skin and provide you with a personalized treatment plan and cost estimate. Keep in mind that while cost is a consideration, the experience and reputation of the healthcare provider should also be a significant factor in your decision-making process when considering laser skin resurfacing.

Can you get botox injections around your mouth?

User Avatar

Asked by WikiRicki

I don't think so.

The best option would be Hyaluronic acid (I read about it somewhere).

Besides, Botox interferes with the ability of the muscle to contract normally, and dealing with your mouth... hmm, paralyzing that crucial muscle of yours, even for a bit, doesn't sound like a good idea. In any case, consider interrogating your doctor about issues like that.

Visit specialized websites about surgeries and other medical procedures if you want to know more about things like that! I have a good suggestion: http://www.surgery.com

How do butt enlargement shots work?

Asked by Wiki User

Hydrogel Buttock Injections The most popular forms of injectable body fillers used for buttocks augmentation are PMMA or Hydrogel. Let's assume for this example, you have chosen Hydrogel. Consultation/first treatment, you will have your consultation where the surgeon will mark the areas where the product will be injected along with the entry points. Make sure you are aware of where the incisions will be and are OK with their location. In some case they may become very small, permanent scars. Make really sure during this consultation the surgeon knows exactly what type of buttock shape you want and where you want the most projection. A good tip, that we recommend to all potential patients is to bring pictures of buttocks you think would look good on you. Take the time to find pictures of body types/styles that at generally match your own, but have a better projection. Another good tip is to bring two photos, one which shows what you consider to be too large and the other what you consider too small. This can really make a great result much more likely if you and your surgeon are in agreement about your goals. Here are the areas you will need to discuss with your surgeon using Hydrogel buttocks injections. Hydrogel can increase or change the size of these areas: 1. Upper buttock 2. Middle buttock 3. Lower buttock 4. Hip expansion 5. Outer thighs

The Day of the Procedure, what happens?

Ok, you are done with your consultation .At this point you will get changed into a surgical garb and the surgeon will take you into a sterile procedure room. A full surgical theater is generally not required for Hydrogel. After thoroughly sterilizing the area, the doctor will inject a local anesthesia directly into the buttock. You will feel minor discomfort at first, but after the area will be numb and the next set of injections will be pretty painless. A tinny incision is made where a small cannula is inserted to inject the product. The Hydrogel is applied just above the muscle in the lower layer of fatty tissue. Expect multiple injections into each area of the buttocks and after each injection the surgeon will deeply massage the area which helps shape the area. It is absolutely necessary that the shape be molded during the procedure Hydrogel buttock injections will take between one and three hours in for the first treatment. A second treatment is common for touch ups to the shape. This normally takes place a few days later and is much faster.
