This means that your plastic surgeon is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS). Board certification from ABPS ensures that your plastic surgeon has met the rigorous guidelines set forth by the organization regarding education, surgical training and ethics.
Patient Satisfaction Rate

The decision to undergo breast enhancement surgery is an important one, and choosing a plastic surgeon to perform your breast augmentation is not a decision you should take lightly if you want the best possible outcome following surgery.
