An Air Canada pilot flew 900+ flights without the proper license.

Sounds insane, but the same thing happens in plastic surgery.

There are physicians performing cosmetic procedures without board certification and without proper training. It’s not talked about enough. And it’s not always obvious to patients.

Before you book any procedure, ask these 3 things:

— Are you board-certified in plastic surgery?

— Where is the procedure being performed?

— Is the facility accredited?

Your safety depends on asking the right questions. 🙌

She came in wanting to feel more like herself. ✨

Procedure: Breast Augmentation
Implants: Allergan Natrelle SSM 295cc
Result shown: 6 weeks post-op

The goal was always natural, proportional to her frame, nothing overdone.

This is what happens when the conversation starts with ‘what do you want to feel like’ instead of ‘what size do you want.’
