Access to cosmetic surgery is a social phenomenon that is popularize and grows all over the world. Despite the fact that from time to time people appear who have been left with serious sequelae after an intervention, a study by the consulting firm Statesman He maintains that it is a market that, globally, is around US$ 83 billion. And that in five years it will reach US$ 130 billion. Given this increase in demand, the supply of professionals who may not be trained to perform this type of operation also grows.
“A person who wants to have cosmetic surgery should talk a lot with the surgeon to clear up their doubts,” he explained to PROFILE Juan Manuel at Diegoplastic surgeon and medical director of CRENYF. And he explained: “The patient should ask him about his level and place of medical and specialized training, both undergraduate and postgraduate, and courses he took. It is not enough to have received it and not even to have the specialty. It is important to know if he attends specialized congresses, if he takes courses or if he keeps himself updated with the news of the profession ”.
On the other hand, it is also clave know if the professional is endorsed for belonging to a scientific society, if he is a full member of it and if he is certified or recertified by these peer associations.
Another point that is recommended is that the operation in question, even if it is minor, takes place in the facilities of a larger institution. “The ideal is to do it in a clinic that has the appropriate operating room, with the necessary equipment and with specialists available to join if any complications appear. Plastic surgeries, no matter how small they are, should not be trivialized”.
Surgeons must clarify to the patient what kind of products are you going to use, which must be approved by the Anmat. In addition, this must also be supported by published clinical studies, which show its use and safety, its innocuousness and even its eventual problems.
Obviously, the doctors they must not accept any requirement of the patient. “If we detect certain features of patients who are never satisfied with the surgeries or with their image, are minors and request implants and other such cases, I think it is better not to face the intervention and suggest that he consult a colleague in the world of psychiatry or psychology”, suggests di Diego. And he concludes: “the good surgeon is the one who also knows when not to operate“.
The Argentine Society of Plastic, Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery (SACPER) from his website explains: “Whoever requires cosmetic or reconstructive surgery needs a surgeon who has the necessary capacity and training.” And it details that registered members “are specialists who have received rigorous, extensive training and have an ethical background to carry out these interventions.”
The site clarifies that “although It is not essential to be a member of SACPER to do surgeries belonging accredits solid training and the guarantee of having updated certification and recertification”.
To facilitate access to these professionals, these entities publish the complete list of certified associates to do this kind of operation. It is enough to enter the name of the professional and the search engine will show if he is a trained partner and has the necessary ethical requirements to practice the specialty.
