License & Certifications

Did you know that any physician who chooses to perform cosmetic surgery can call themselves a “plastic surgeon”, even if they are not trained specifically in plastic surgery techniques or have experience with performing these procedures! It’s important to research your surgeon’s experience, training and licensure.

Obtaining a medical license to diagnose and treat patients means a physician meets a minimum level of competency requirements, but it is not specific to any one specialty. Board Certification demonstrates a physician’s level of expertise in their specialty. Board certification is the “Gold Standard” because the physician has demonstrated exceptional knowledge, experience and skills to provide quality healthcare with superior outcomes within their specific specialty.
