I have a degree in Biomedical Engineering and Psychology from Northwestern University. I finished medical school and completed my M.D. at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine. I am currently in my residency for surgery- hopefully to be specializing in neurosurgery.
I want to answer questions on medical type questions. I'm a big fan of Dr. Drew Pinsky on Love Line and would like to help younger people from the mistakes I see a lot of young people do when they come into my ER.

At what age is it okay to get plastic surgery? (link)
|
I will go against the grain from most since I've done some plastics before. It all depends on what you mean by plastic surgery. There are different types from cosmetic (breast augmentation) v. those done for birth defects etc. Plastics is also used to reconstruct skin, muscle etc. after major operations.
There is no "okay" age to get plastic surgery- because it depends on what kind of plastic surgery you're talking about. If you're talking about liposuction or cosmetic surgery- it is best to do this after you're done growing (ie done with puberty).
If you want to email me with what type of plastic surgery you're talking about, I can go into more detail.
Sorry if this didn't help too much.
