   Yes, do keep an eye out for coupons on every doctor’s website, and if you see one, run away. Many, but not all, plastic surgeons have seen a downturn in the volume of their surgical practice that coincides with the overall economic downturn. Discounting the value of professional services, especially surgery, is not good marketing – it is a sign of desperation. The best plastic surgeons are still busy in this contracting economy, and they are not discounting their fees. At the same time, the most expensive surgeon is not necessarily the most talented, so as a consumer you still have to research this carefully. There is much more to consider than just the price in dollars that you pay: is your surgeon actually listening to you, do they truly understand the appearance that you hope to achieve, do you feel that he or she will be easily available and attentive once the surgery has been performed. If you don’t have a good feeling, don’t stick around to ‘save money’, go somewhere else. Doubt means don’t.

   Expertise can actually save you money. Look for a board-certified plastic surgeon that has considerable experience and expertise in both surgical and non-surgical aesthetic treatments. In some cases there may be a non-invasive or less invasive approach that can help you achieve part or all of your aesthetic goals, often at a significantly lower cost.

   By the same token, don’t take the non-surgical route just because it is less expensive, if what you really need is a surgical procedure to accomplish your goals. Better to hold onto your money and hold off on surgery, rather than spending what you have on a non-surgical procedure that won’t produce the result you are seeking. So expertise is invaluable.

   Nothing is more costly than surgical revisions, or living with complications or unsatisfactory results from plastic surgery. The best price on plastic surgery is not necessarily the best deal. Take much time and consideration before selecting a plastic surgeon.
