Office plastic surgery saves time and money
Dr Frank M Kamer of UCLA says minor operations done in well equipped office facilities can be as safe as hospital procedures. Based on 1368 cases in the past year, 564 in outpatient offices, including 135 face lifts and 203 eyelid surgeries, with only one requiring hospitalization. He notes lower costs, faster return home, and fewer pain meds, urging strict office standards and clean, fully equipped units.
