Shockingly, many consumers still go to unregistered plastic surgeons for their cosmetic surgery procedures. If we wouldn't trust an unqualified car mechanic with our cars, why are we trusting an unqualified plastic surgeon with our face and body? We have written a guide and shortlisted a list of plastic surgery clinics for you below.

Best Plastic Surgery in Malaysia

Choosing the right plastic surgeon in Malaysia is not as simple as choosing a GP to get your next MC.

Not all plastic surgeons are the same!

Plastic Surgery can be divided into two main categories: reconstructive surgery and cosmetic surgery. Reconstructive surgery includes cranio-facial surgery, hand surgery, microsurgery, and the treatment of burns. While reconstructive surgery aims to reconstruct a part of the body or improve its functioning, cosmetic (or aesthetic) surgery aims at improving the appearance of it.

Choosing the right plastic surgeon and plastic surgery clinic for the right procedure are both complex and challenging. There is no one size fits all answer. Do your own research and find the ‘right’ plastic surgeon you can trust and comfortable with.

“Amazing experience here. I am a foreign traveler with only a few days in the city, and finding a good doctor with my schedule is usually difficult. This office immediately made space for an appointment, and did the procedure I needed on the same day. Not only professional and highly skilled, but also kind and very attentive to every need. They removed all anxiety from rushing such a visit in a country far from my home, and I am grateful. They will take care of you here !”

“Really good service. Customer service was very friendly. Satisfied with the doctor consultation, very professional in explaining the treatment in detail. Doctor and nurses was very gentle during treatment. Overall experience in Beverly Wilshire was really great. I would recommend this centre to my friends.”

Key Takeaway

You may wish to run through the following as your summary checklist:

• Filter and shortlist your clinics.
• Once you have shortlisted the clinics, book an appointment to have a consultation with your plastic surgeon. Do compare them based on your first impressions and other considerations. Use a table (Excel or Google Sheets) with factors to consider and a scoring for each important factor, if you need to improve your clarity.
• Are they accommodating in terms of appointment time and date?
• Was a solid plan of action determined with detailed information especially post-procedure precaution and care?
• In the event of a possible complication or infection, do you need to pay extra? 
• And one last precaution, hotel rooms are not meant for cosmetic surgery procedures.

For international customers, it's recommended that you take up a travel insurance. This is to ensure that in the event of post-operative complication, your hospital admission cost would be covered.
