As mentioned on the home page, this web site is about Hawaii Plastic Surgeons. We here at Hawaii-Plastic-Surgeons.com want you to know once again that you as a consumer of Plastic Surgery Services are very lucky to live in Hawaii. Those in New York, Los Angeles, Tokyo, Paris or other major cities have many excellent plastic surgeons to choose from, but...there are also many doctors not of high standards. Hawaii is different, its easy to choose on the basis of quality as the plastic surgeons here are ALL of high quality.
Hawaii is a small geographic area with a relatively small population - around 1 million. There is also something known here as the "coconut wireless" which is another way to state that people talk amongst themselves very often and live in very close knit communities.
The bad doctors just do not last here and soon leave due to the pressure of the cocconut wireless as information spreads quickly. This means that any plastic surgeon who is not of the highest standards will not survive here due to "word getting out" fast. Simply put, it is too small a place for a bad doctor to hide, so any physician who makes too many mistakes or a plastic surgeon who does not have consistantly good result will not remain. As you will see later we have presented each plastic surgeon and how long they have been in Hawaii so consider this in your decision.
Although Honolulu is a relatively small place compared to Los Angeles or Tokyo, the state of Hawaii due to its desirable location tends to attracts leaders in their fields. Plastic Surgery is no exception.
Many of the plastic surgeons here have conducted courses, lectured and been invloved in training plastic surgeons from around the world. For example, Dr. Flowers has written many books and articles on plastic surgery, Dr. Parsa has been a senior advisor to many surgeons and author as well. Dr. Rizzo has taught asian nose surgery courses. Dr. Pasquale has taught hands-on courses such as "buttock augmentation" internationally, most recently in Korea. Dr. Peterson has lectured in Japan and on the mainland. These are some simple small examples, but all the plastic surgeons here have been wiling teachers and have contributed to the science. Rest assured that you are in good hands if you choose any of the Board Certified Plastic Surgeons in Hawaii.
Another check and balance here is that there are a relatively high number of plastic surgeons for this small population. Although many of the plastic surgeons here have clients from Asia, the mainland and other parts of the world, it is still a very competitive environment. This means the pressure is on for each of these surgeons to perform his very best for you. Rest assured, if one surgeon makes you unhappy there are others here who will do their best and they all know this. This is one reason that if you choose a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in the Aloha State of Hawaii they will be good at what they do.
