Hand, upper extremity, and arm are a complex area of the body. Any cosmetic or functional issue related to this region should be treated by a surgeon who is an expert in hand surgery as well as cosmetic surgery.
Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Bram Kaufman provides hand surgery to patients in Beachwood, Pepper Pike, Cleveland, OH, and surrounding locations.
Accreditation
The simplest and most reliable method to identify an adequately trained and qualified plastic surgeon as well as hand surgeon would be to assess whether they are accredited by the renowned American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS).
The ABPS is the most authoritative and recognized surgery board in the United States. For patients, this certification offers an automatic guarantee that the surgeon has received specialized training in a specific area for a certain number of years.
Surgeons who maintain the ABPS certification for the long term will continually remain abreast with cutting-edge surgical techniques and knowledge, and follow stringent standards of care and best practices in cosmetic surgery at all times.
While many surgeons offer hand surgeries, all of them may not be board certified in plastic surgery by the ABPS.
