There are countless plastic surgeons in NYC, which can make selecting a surgeon feel incredibly daunting. This is especially true because when it comes to choosing a plastic surgeon in New York City, Long Island, and Westchester, including areas such as Manhattan, Great Neck, Manhasset, Roslyn, Scarsdale, White Plains, and Greenwich, it’s important to pick the best possible option.
There are several ways to make this process easier. First, only consider surgeons who have a great deal of experience with your chosen procedure. Experts in breast surgery, for example, are a better option than more generalized plastic surgeons. Dr. Newman has performed over 7,000 breast procedures, more than most plastic surgeons in the United States.
Additionally, it’s best to select a plastic surgeon who is board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, like Dr. Newman. Board-certified plastic surgeons undergo a great deal of training and pass numerous rigorous tests to achieve this status, ensuring that they have the highest possible degree of skill. It is also important that your surgeon is an Active Member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and the Aesthetic Society.
You should meet with several plastic surgeons for personalized consultations. During these consultations, you’ll need to ask questions that will help you better understand their experience levels and perspectives. Creating a list of questions in advance will be the best way to be as prepared as possible.
These consultations should include looking over the plastic surgeon’s before-and-after photos. This will help you find out which surgeons create the highest-quality work and would thus be most likely to provide satisfactory results.
Additionally, meeting with plastic surgeons for consultations allows you to gauge your rapport, which will be incredibly important during the entire process. You need a plastic surgeon who will listen to your aesthetic goals, assess your needs effectively, and offer empathetic support throughout your plastic surgery journey.
Dr. Newman will typically spend 30-60 minutes or longer for your initial Breast Augmentation or Breast Lift consultation in his Westchester, Long Island, or Manhattan offices. You should expect to leave your consultation with a full understanding of the procedures discussed and why these procedures are the best choices for you.
