Accredited Facilities – The Best All Along


This is one of the many reasons why we feel real proud of our AAAASF accreditation.

The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) published a survey they had made in the July edition of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery journal that just made it a whole lot easier for cosmetic surgery candidates when scanning for a clinic.

The study found a significantly low level in the number of casualties reported among those who had their cosmetic surgery procedure in an AAAASF certified facility than in a non-certified one. Even if the accredited facility in question is an office, the safety levels were found to be the same as those found in hospitals.

The study is just a reiteration of facts actually and plastic surgery candidates would do well to realize the stress they have to pay on having their chin enhancement or tummy tuck surgery in a certified location.

What is even better is that very few states (14) in the U.S. make facility accreditation mandatory. California is apparently one of them, with the Plastic Surgery Institute of California one of the few clinics with an AAAASF certification.

Your field just narrowed down. Visit us today for an appointment.
