Overview
An Aesthetic Surgeon is a medical doctor, often with training in plastic surgery, who specializes in elective procedures to enhance or improve appearance. This includes surgical and minimally invasive interventions on the face, body, and skin. Aesthetic surgery focuses on beauty, symmetry, and proportion rather than correcting functional problems.

- Perform cosmetic surgical procedures such as facelifts, rhinoplasty (nose jobs), liposuction, breast augmentation, tummy tucks, and body contouring.
- Offer minimally invasive aesthetic treatments, including Botox, fillers, laser treatments, and chemical peels.
- Evaluate patient goals and expectations, providing personalized treatment plans and ensuring informed consent.
- Collaborate with dermatologists, anesthesiologists, and skincare professionals for comprehensive aesthetic care.
- Ensure patient safety and manage complications, both in the operating room and during recovery.
- Stay updated with aesthetic trends and techniques, often through continuing education, workshops, and conferences.
