What is the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery and who can be a member?
As a nurse I probably should know the answer, yet I cannot figure out what is the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery. Who can be a member? Are they board certified doctors? I am looking for a surgeon for breast augmentation and ran across this confusion.
There's only one recognized board for plastic surgeons
Plastic surgery procedures have some attraction for non-plastic surgeons (individuals who are not trained as plastic surgeons and who are not board eligible to be certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, including physicians like gynecologists, internal medicine doctors, etc.) This attraction has created pressure for the formation of bodies to "certify" physicians looking for credibility. There is only one recognized board for plastic surgeons - that is the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Be sure your surgeon is a member. I hope this helps.
