One of the best ways to determine the effectiveness of a Los Angeles cosmetic surgeon is before-and-after photos. Virtually all plastic surgeons in Orange County and Los Angeles County will provide such photos during the consultation process. What makes Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Andre Aboolian unique is the number and variety of such photos that he offers to potential patients. At least six angles are offered for the most extensive procedures (such as liposuction), including whole body, sitting, front, back and profile views. Dr. Aboolian also encourages people to speak with past patients of his who have already undergone the desired procedure. This enables patients to form realistic expectations of both the pros and cons of plastic surgery and to make an informed decision. The value that Dr. Aboolian ascribes to patient education has made him one of the most highly regarded of all Southern California plastic surgeons.
