What certifications should you look for in a rhinoplasty surgeon?

American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (ABFPRS)

The ABFPRS is the only board-certified specialty organization for facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. All ABFPRS-certified surgeons have completed extensive training in facial plastic surgery, including a residency in otolaryngology-head and neck surgery and a fellowship in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery.

American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS)

The ASPS is a professional organization for plastic surgeons. ASPS members must meet certain educational and training requirements, and they must agree to abide by the ASPS Code of Ethics.

The Rhinoplasty Society

The Rhinoplasty Society is a professional organization for surgeons who specialize in rhinoplasty. Members of the Rhinoplasty Society have extensive experience in rhinoplasty, and they are dedicated to providing their patients with the best possible care.

In addition to these certifications, you should also consider the surgeon's experience, skill, and reputation. Ask to see before-and-after photos of the surgeon's work, and read reviews from previous patients. You should also feel comfortable with the surgeon and their staff.

Choosing a qualified rhinoplasty surgeon is important for ensuring the safety and success of your surgery. By doing your research and asking the right questions, you can find a surgeon who can help you achieve your cosmetic goals.
