The patients should asks questions such as whether or not the surgeon have travelled overseas, have they just observed plastic surgery or did an expert in the field taught them? How many procedures have they performed so far? The patient should know all these details in order to be assured about the expertise of the surgeon.

Q 5: Why do some surgical fees seem so cheap?
There are many reasons why surgeons have cheaper fees. They may be learning the procedures, or they are new in practice, and do not have the confidence to charge a proper fee. The major cause for our pricing being lower as compared to Western countries is mainly the huge difference between the value of rupees as compared to the value of dollar. Therefore spending Rs. 43 in India would mean spending just 1 $. Also the Indian government has subsidised medical equipment to a great level therefore the cost of getting a surgery done here is way too cheaper than in the US or other European countries.
