The patient should be the only person to decide on a plastic surgery procedure, such as liposuction. External factors should not have an influence on this decision.
However, the patient should decide to proceed with the procedure after careful consideration and achieving clarity on all doubts and concerns that they may have.
Patients who have complete clarity will usually attain the highest satisfaction levels with surgical outcomes. A committed surgeon will answer any questions that the patient may have in an in-depth and precise manner.
