Where to for cosmetic surgery?!

Where to for cosmetic surgery?

Somewhere not too expensive, but no back yard work either. I am interested in rhino surgery and some skin work (scars).
Thanks.

Btw, I live in Turkey so I guess i have to go abroad for a decent job.

The best way to select your plastic surgeon is to do your own research. Take your time. Interview at least two or three plastic surgeons, and see examples of their work. Look at their before and after pictures. Make sure you like the results of the doctor's work and that you feel you have a good rapport with him. That way, you have made a rational, informed decision for yourself. Don't just blindly take someone else's recommendation. Anyone who refers you to a plastic surgeon has far less at stake in the outcome than you do, so it's up to you to take responsibility for finding the best doctor.
Other ways, mostly unsatisfactory:
•Get a recommendation from your family doctor.

Your family doctor is busy, and probably doesn't make a career out of carefully evaluating every plastic surgeon in town. He might refer you to a couple plastic surgeons whom he knows well, and the best plastic surgeon in town might not get mentioned. Your doctor very possibly does not know the quality or lack of quality of the plastic surgeons whose names he gives you.
•Get a recommendation from a satisfied patient.

That patient might be satisfied with the results he achieved, not knowing that a different doctor could have done much, much better.
•Find out if the doctor is board-certified.

Board certification, by itself, means almost nothing. Remember that the board certification test is a written test; it does not evaluate the surgeon's manual dexterity, his artistic talents, whether he cares about his patients' well-being, or whether his results are excellent, just passable, or bad. You don't just want a board-certified doctor, you want a doctor who can deliver excellent results.
•Get a referral from a hospital referral line.

A hospital referral line will send you at random to one of the plastic surgeons who work at that hospital, but to none of the doctors who don't work at that hospital. Hospital referral lines don't take skill or patient satisfaction into account at all.
•Get a recommendation from your cosmetologist or hair stylist.

Actually, this may be a reasonable way to select a plastic surgeon, second only to doing your own research. Your cosmetologist is in the appearance business, sees the scars and the results, isn't afraid to talk to the clients, and probably has seen and compared the work of many of the local plastic surgeons. If your cosmetologist is experienced, it's not a bad place to start.
If you're not sure where to start, you can get some names from your cosmetologist or from your family doctor, but remember that you still have to check out the plastic surgeons yourself. The Yellow Pages will have a complete list of doctors, but remember that the size and quality of the ad doesn't necessarily correlate with the skill of the surgeon.

Contacting a plastic surgeon is probably the best idea for advice. These sites have a lot of other helpful information…
