Chicago Plastic Surgery

Searching for Chicago Plastic Surgery expert? Here's what you need to know before you take the plunge, plus our answers to your FAQs about Chicago Plastic Surgery and our list of top Chicago Plastic Surgery offices.

How to choose plastic surgeon:
Pick your plastic surgeon based on a combination of research and references. The American Medical Association provides a great tool for researching all physicians at their website, www.ama-assn.org.

You can also verify that your plastic surgeon belongs to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) or the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons (AAFPRS).

In Illinois, you can visit www.ildpr.com, the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation. Once there, you can verify the status of your doctor's state license as well as seeing if your doctor has ever been disciplined and if so, for what offense.

Questions to ask your plastic surgeon:

  1. How many procedures of this type have you performed?
  2. What are the risks involved with the procedure?
  3. What is the expected recovery time?
  4. How much will the surgery cost? In most cases, your surgery won't be covered by insurance so make sure that you understand all the costs before committing. The doctor's fee often does not include the anesthesiologists fee and may not include surgery center or hospital fees.
