Are you considering Cosmetic Plastic Surgery here in the Philippines?
We strongly advise you to consult with a certified cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgeon regarding your surgery. Since in the Philippines any licensed medical doctor or even non doctors may attempt to learn and perform cosmetic plastic surgery, choosing the right person for the procedure is a most crucial decision which significantly affects outcome. Philippine Cosmetic Plastic Surgery can definitely be very satisfying and rewarding for both the patient and Cosmetic Plastic Surgeon when it is done in a manner that is safe, sound, reliable, and realistic.
You have to know your doctor well. Take note of his credentials, qualifications and formal training. It takes an additional six to eight years of combined General Surgery and Plastic Surgery to transform a physician after medical school into a certified Plastic Aesthetic Reconstructive Surgeon. There are only a handful of Medical Institutions that offer these training programs in the Philippines, namely University of the East Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Medical Center, Makati Medical Center, Veterans Memorial Medical Center, Rizal Medical Center (comprising CONSORTIUM I), Far Eastern University, St. Lukes Medical Center, Lourdes Hospital, Jose Reyes Memorial Medical Center (comprising CONSORTIUM II), UP-PGH and UST.
The Philippine Association of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons (PAPRAS) is the only organization recognized by the Philippine College of Surgeons (PCS) to safely and competently practice such specialty.The Philippine Board of Plastic Surgery (PBPS) is the only organization that looks over fellowship and resident training and ultimately labels a graduate as a board certified plastic cosmetic and reconstructive surgeon after his completion of an oral and written examination given by the same board.
Plastic surgeons do both cosmetic/ aesthetic and reconstructive surgeries. Common cosmetic procedures are liposuction/ lipoplasty, abdominoplasty/tummy tuck/tummytuck, breast augmentation/boob job, breast lift/ mastopexy, breast reduction, rhinoplasty/ nose lift/noselift/reshaping, buttocks augmentation, blepharoplasty/eyelid surgery, face lift/facelift/rhytidectomy/rhytidoplasty, forehead lift, temporal lift, neck lift, chin augmentation/ genioplasty, cheek/ malar augmentation, hair transplant, Botox, dermal fillers, and dermabrasion among many more other surgeries. Reconstructive procedures involve cleft lip, palate and other congenital defects, scar revision, surgery of physical malformation and malfunction as a result of trauma and burns, and even maxillofacial injuries.
Our patients are strongly encouraged to ask around and be properly and thoroughly informed regarding the procedures they desire whether it be cosmetic or reconstructive in nature. Your board certified cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgeon will display adequate knowledge, skill and care prior, during and after surgery.
