Innovations in the field of plastic surgery over the years have dramatically improved the success rates in cosmetic procedures. However, the single most vital factor that will still influence the final outcome in any such procedure is the authoritative expertise of the operating surgeon and the quality standards maintained at the surgical practice.
The Virginia Institute of Plastic Surgery is one of the most dedicated and dependable providers of cutting edge surgical procedures for the breast, body, and face. Led by board certified plastic surgeons Dr. Burton Sundin and Dr. Reps Sundin, the practice provides cosmetic procedures to patients in Richmond, Virginia, and surrounding communities.
Board Certified (ABPS) Surgeons
One of the key strengths of the Virginia Institute of Plastic Surgery is that it is headed by not one but two plastic surgeons, who are both board certified by the prestigious American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS). This certification is only granted to a select group of plastic surgeons in the country who meet the rigorous selection standards of the Board.
It serves as an automatic assurance for a patient who wants to choose the best qualified and fully trained surgeon for their plastic surgery procedure. ABPS board certified plastic surgeons will typically invest in the highest quality standards and best practices, adopt the latest surgical techniques and technology, pursue continuing education, and follow the current safety protocols to create best outcomes for their patients.
