Plastic surgery is very popular in our society, and strong interest during the Coronavirus pandemic has further validated this. While there was a temporary dip in online searches at the beginning of the epidemic, the situation has rebounded, and the industry has shown a marked uptick over last year!


Some tips for safe plastic surgery during COVID-19


All patients considering surgery should look for a Doctor who follows the most strict protocols, precautions, and health & safety standards. Here are some things to look for to ensure a safe and pleasurable experience when considering plastic surgery procedures.


Do your research and look for a surgeon committed to closely following the health department guidelines in your region and that of the Federal Government. 


Demand that your specialist exercises the following operational protocols and safety measures:


1. Virtual consultations whenever possible. 


2. Coronavirus screenings for all patients and staff. Including extensive temperature screenings, checks for respiratory illness, possible exposure during travel, and before visiting the clinic.


3. Social distancing guidelines and a reduced number of patients should be in-office. 


4. Shared space should be eliminated or reduced as much as possible, including waiting rooms, lobbies, and other areas.  


5. The correct use of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) for all staff members. 


6. ALL staff and patients must wear masks. 


7. Shields of plexiglass or plastic placed between front office staff and patients. 


8. Deep cleaning of all surfaces and sanitation with industrial disinfectant between patients. 


9. Complete air exchange in the operating theatre as per regulations. 


10. Choose a certified plastic surgeon who is regarded professionally and follows the very highest health and safety standards. 


Also, choosing to have surgery in a hospital or certified operating suite assures you will have a safe experience and the best possible results. 


As a patient, you have the right to expect a sympathetic surgical team that makes your safety and security their highest priority. A winning team brings peace of mind and is essential for a positive experience. 


It is entirely possible to have a healthy and pleasurable plastic surgery experience despite the Coronavirus pandemic. Make sure to do your homework and find a board-certified plastic surgeon who cares as much about your health and safety as you do. This will make your experience and results top quality.
