The
difference the ASPS logo makes...
To complete
their training, plastic surgeons must undergo rigorous specialization
requirements. Not only do plastic surgeons complete a general surgery
residency, which is usually three to five years, but they must also
complete a two-year plastic surgery residency. Many surgeons participate
in additional training in a plastic surgery sub-specialty. The ASPS
logo symbolizes the commitment plastic surgeons have to their profession.
In order
to be a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, one must
be certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. It's important
to always look for that symbol, because it means that the surgeon has
completed the demanding specialization requirements and met the board's
extremely high standards. And that's exactly the kind of surgeon you
want enhancing your appearance, isn't it?
