Abstract

Due to rising demand, the variety of treatments and the number of possible complications in aesthetic surgery, professional and ethics standards are increasing when performing different invasive surgical treatments. During the initial examination that is important for further surgical treatment, plastic surgeons should consider the degree of deformity, the physical and psychological stage of maturity and the patient’s final expectation of the selected treatment. Education of the patient in this area is of the highest importance due to rise in treatments and potential complications that might occur, which can have repercussions not only on their physical appearance but psychological health as well. Before carrying out these treatments, doctors should take ethical principles into consideration and should find the best operative solution for each individual patient.
