  • Title: Liposuction and other cosmetic surgery: where do they fit; what are the risks for hospitals?
    Journal: Health Technol; 1988; 2(2):46-53. PubMed ID: 10287061.
    Abstract:
    The boom in cosmetic surgery, best exemplified by the rapid increase in one of the most popular procedures, liposuction, provides some lessons for hospitals. The qualifications of staff who request privileges to perform cosmetic surgery must be scrutinized carefully. Oversight of physician advertising and selection of patients may also be necessary.
