Success of a plastic surgery depends on a good analysis of the steps you will follow, and on asking the following 10 essential questions, which will help you to make the best choice and to get the best results in your surgery.

1. How to choose your surgeon?
When choosing the doctor who will perform your surgery, it is very important to check his credentials. It refers to the university where he got his Medicine degree and his Plastic Surgery specialty. You also should check his affiliation to any local and/or international Plastic Surgery Associations, and very specially, if he has all required licenses and insurance policies.  You also must research about his professional, ethical and personal qualities, and, preferably, know the results of other patients' surgeries.

2. How many procedures can I get done in a single surgical session?
It's very important you ask your doctor how many and which surgical procedures you can get done. It is essential to know how many hours will you be exposed to anesthesia, which are the risks of each surgery and how long will recovery take (time, special cares you must have, how will it limit your daily activities, etc.).

3. What post-surgery treatments and controls will I need?
This is a key question you have to ask in order to ensure good recovery and the best results after your surgery. When you plan your surgery, you should have in mind the time you will need to have lymphatic drainage massages, ultrasound massages, hyperbaric chamber sessions and post-surgery controls.  Remember that these complementary treatments make your recovery faster and improve the final results of your surgery.

4. What special care should I get after my surgery?
The work performed by your surgeon is essential for the good results of your surgery. Although, these results will also be determined by post-surgical care you get, so keep in mind you must avoid sudden, fast and strong movements. You also must get a healthy and balanced diet, get rest and tranquility, avoid unnecessary displacements during the first days, and if it is necessary to go out, you must find a comfortable, care-taking transportation. You must take all your post-surgical treatments, wear any special garments recommended by your doctor, and follow strictly your surgeon's instructions.

5. How long will it take to get back to my activities after a plastic surgery?
Your surgeon has the final word about this, so it's really important that you take the time he suggests to you, and follow all indications we have provided in order to make your recovery process go as programmed.  You have to attend to all medical controls, and, if you have any disturbance or discomfort, tell it to your doctor opportunely.  You also must keep in mind that total recovery will take from 3 to 6 months, so you will see the final results only after that time.

When you get these questions answered accordingly to your specific case, you will be working to get better results and a recovery process that will fulfill your expectations. Although, there are other questions you shuold ask. In a further article we will bring you the rest of these questions so you will get a complete information and the best results from your surgery.
