LAM FACIAL PLASTICS

Dear Dr. Lam;


After reading and watching favourable reviews about your work and methods, I felt encouraged to ask the following question: Since I live in the UK, do you know of any doctors in the UK/Europe who can perform the silicone procedure for acne scars with your same processes/technology/products? A while ago I remember reading about doctors who performed similar treatments with AIDS patients here in the UK, so, what questions should I ask to make sure that their processes/technologies/products are similar to yours?


Regards;

I do not personally know of anyone who can do this procedure in the UK. Also, this website is not intended to endorse or defame another surgeon. That is an important rule here.

When looking for someone to do silicone, here are the questions I would ask:
1. how many silicone procedures have you done?
2. what is your success rate?
3. how many years have you been doing it?
4. what is your complication rate?
5. do you need to combine it with other procedures? when and why?
6. what kind of silicone do you use? where do you get it? is it medical grade? (i don't know about Europe but I only use Alcon labs Silikon 1000. not jiffy lube.)
7. where did you train to learn how to do silicone?
8. how many treatments am i looking to do to get there?
9. describe your technique in detail? (it should be the microdroplet technique. if not, run.)
best,
sml
