"Why is it important to choose  board certified plastic surgeons or cosmetic surgeons?
 
 

Choosing to have plastic surgery is an important decision, and so is selecting a plastic surgeon. Whether you're considering cosmetic surgery to improve your appearance or reconstructive surgery to correct defects or improve function, you want a board-certified cosmetic surgeon with the skill and training to help achieve your goals. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), established in 1931, is the largest plastic surgery specialty organization in the world.  Dr. Richard O'Donnell is certified by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.

A third generation Colorado physician with dual degrees in both medicine and dentistry, Dr. O'Donnell has the ability to interface innate artistic talent with medical/dental expertise to provide his patients with a unique blend of talented skills.

After completing his dental education at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri, Dr. O'Donnell graduated from the University of Colorado Medical School in Denver. Following residencies in Plastic, Maxillofacial and Reconstructive Surgery as well as General Surgery, he received post doctoral fellowship training at the University of Nurenburg Erlangen in West Germany. Dr. ODonnell is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.

With more than fifteen years of private practice experience in Denver, Dr. O'Donnell offers a comprehensive range of facial and figure, cosmetic and plastic surgery procedures.

WHAT IS PLASTIC SURGERY?

Plastic Surgery is a body of knowledge encompassing amongst other things Cosmetic Surgery. In order to become a Plastic Surgeon, one completes a Plastic Surgery Residency. In order to qualify to enter a Plastic Surgery Residency, one must complete at least three years of a General Surgery Residency. Currently, most Plastic Surgery Residents have completed a full General Surgery Residency (Five to Seven Years, depending upon the institution) or a full Orthopedic, Urologic, Otolaryngologic, or Neurosurgical Residency. Dr. O'Donnell has a degree in dentistry and specializes in maxillofacial and craniofacial surgery.

TRAINING

Plastic Surgeons are trained for an additional two to three years after this primary Residency. This translates into total education of at least:
4 Years College
4 Years Medical School
3 Years Surgical Residency (more often 5-7 as noted above)
2 Years Plastic Surgery Residency

AREN'T ALL COSMETIC SURGEONS PLASTIC SURGEONS?

The Plastic Surgeon has most definitely been trained as to how to do the operation. Some of the other specialists (except the Dermatologists) have had formal surgical training, so they might know how to do it some cosmetic procedures. Some have done extra training to gain expertise in certain cosmetic procedures and others have done them for a long period of time. Dermatologists train as to the care of the skin and therefore get some experience removing skin cancers. The problem is that you the consumer have no real way of knowing the surgical quality of the physician that you might see.  

The bottom line is that Plastic Surgeons (those that have completed a Plastic Surgery Residency) have been trained how to do Cosmetic surgery. Those in other specialties may perform the procedure, but the extent to which they have been trained may be questionable.  With trained and qualified Cosmetic Surgeons and Plastic Surgeons such as Dr. O'Donnell you have many years of experience and education to be confident in.

 

"There are a variety of reasons why women choose to have breast implants. Small framed, athletic type or a lightly built woman can achieve a natural looking fuller more proportional figure with breast implants." "Many of the satisfied patients we have came to us following childbearing", according to Dr. O'Donnell. "They have lost size and projection. Breasts can be lifted to regain that profile that they had before the weight loss. Therefore she can feel beautiful everywhere."  Cosmetic Surgeons can help you to increase your self esteem!
