Newsweek collated the list of best plastic surgeons in America based on a survey carried out in partnership with Statista Inc, a world-renowned German statistical firm.
The survey polled plastic surgeons, asking them to rank their peers according to numerous criteria. Acummulation of the surveys informed the final standings.
Newsweek ranked plastic surgeons in four categories – breast augmentation, rhinoplasty, facelift and liposuction.
