hi all, I don’t know much about
cosmetic surgery and don’t know where to
start so I am trying this forum for help.
I would like to get liposuction done on
my stomach, thighs, sides of the butt,
upper arms, sides under arm and under
chin. I have a few questions regarding
these procedures:
1. How do I find out names of at least 3
good surgeons in the northern california
area?
2. How do I do research on these
surgeons to find out how good they are?
Is there a place you can go to see their
records (like success rates and
problems).
3. How much I should expect to spend and
how long will recovery take?
4. What are the complications for these
procedures?
:cry:

Hi there
1. The best way to find out names of at
least 3 good surgeons in the northern
california area is to search on the
internet. You can also ask women who have
had plastic surgery, but for that you have
to find them...
2. You can do research on these surgeons
to find out how good they are on their
sites. Any plastic surgeon who respects
himself has a web site and there you can
see different cases....Pre and
postoperative pictures...This way you see
if you like how the surgeon works.
3. You should expect for the operation to
cost quite a bit. Unfortunately I can't
tell you a number, but once you find
plastic surgeon sites, you can send an
e-mail and find that out.
As for the recovery,it shouldn't take
long...A few days in bed but about two
weeks before doing any effort or so.
4. The complications are hematomas and
infections, and depending on the type of
anesthesia paralysis may occur. But these
complication seldom occur, so I would't
worry.
