The Definition of an "Asian plastic surgeon" A surgeon whose practice is devoted almost fully to Asian plastic surgery A surgeon's inheritance alone counts for little Good training and experience are mandatory List of a few Asian Vietnamese Cosmetic Surgeons in US The term "Asian plastic surgeon" is used to denote a doctor skilled at performing the highly specialized cosmetic procedures tailored to the Asian body and not as a reference to a surgeon's personal genetics, ethnicity, or location of practice. Whether a surgeon was born, trained, or works in Korea, Japan, China, the
U.S., or the U.K. is not that important in determining his or her level of
skill. The most accomplished surgeons for a given operation may be of Asian or
non-Asian descent and are just as likely practice in Los Angeles as Seoul. Even if the title of "world's best Asian plastic surgeon" could somehow be bestowed, it would at most refer only to a single operation (for instance, double eyelid surgery) and not every conceivable cosmetic surgery performed head to toe So since the "ultimate" plastic surgeon can't be determined, a patient researching possible doctors will generally do better limiting his or her search to within a group of top specialists for Asians who fulfills certain criteria known to be associated with a high degree of competence. What criteria might these be? To the right are a number of links to short essays that may help you locate the best Asian plastic surgeons for your individual situation and needs. A surgeon whose practice is devoted almost fully to Asian plastic surgery is probably pretty good at it. A surgeon whose practice is devoted almost fully to, for example, Asian rhinoplasty is not just a specialist but a "super-specialist." Most likely, he or she is very good at it. At the other extreme, a plastic surgeon who performs an occasional operation on a patient of Asian descent is really just a "generalist" and not likely to be as accomplished as the others in this unusually specialized field of cosmetic surgery. While it goes without saying that most cosmetic surgeons practicing in Asia perform most of their plastic surgery on Asians, this alone does not constitute a great advantage over the specialist doctor in the West. Numbers alone are but a single variable and not the most important indicator of surgical excellence. With plenty of experience in Asian plastic surgery, specialization means much less than it may at first appear. However brilliant a student, a new doctor fresh out of training is not the equivalent of a seasoned surgeon who has been caring for patients and their problems for ten or twenty years. Experience alone, on the other hand, is not enough. For instance, a doctor whose main attraction is bottom-of-the barrel pricing can perform lots of "assembly-line" surgery without ever developing much insight or skill. Still, experience is a major determinant of quality that is often undervalued by potential patients swayed by professional public relations campaigns. A surgeon's inheritance alone counts for little when it comes to evaluating his or her medical expertise. If it did, Chinese bartenders would be more skilled at Asian plastic surgery than American super-specialists. While many patients simply assume that, for instance, a plastic surgeon of Korean ethnicity must have a better feel for Asian aesthetics and what a patient wants or needs, there seems to be little correlation between surgical outcome and a doctor's racial background, especially with cosmetic surgeons practicing outside of East Asia. When a doctor has been educated in the West or is simply the offspring of immigrant grandparents or parents to a Western country, he or she may be more "Asian" in name than anything else. The other selection factors noted to the right matter much more than surgeon ethnicity. Good training and experience are mandatory, but true surgical skill requires intelligence, honesty, reflection, critical self-evaluation, manual dexterity, and, or course, a life-long commitment to excellence. Such requirements are harder for the potential patient to measure but should not be overlooked. While most plastic surgeons are simply average if not less than average at what they do (after all, average means "in the middle" and so not every Board-certified surgeon can be among the best), a true "super-specialist" is unlikely to lack skill. If a surgeon limits his or her practice to a single area of the body but performs mediocre work, word-of-mouth will put the doctor out of business in no time at all. An unhurried personal consultation can help a patient get a better feel for these less tangible but crucial qualities that define the true skill level of any surgeon.
