Vancouver Area Plastic Surgeon Highlighted on Web Forum

Dr. Mathew Mosher has become one of only 4 authorities on plastic surgery from the Vancouver area to be featured on RealSelf.com, and has earned the 2011 Platinum Elite designation, the most prestigious physician status offered by this forum.



    VANCOUVER, BC, April 23, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dr. Mathew Mosher, specializing in cosmetic surgery in the Vancouver area, has quickly become one of the most valued physician members of the online cosmetic community, RealSelf.com. He has earned the 2011 Platinum Elite designation for member physicians, the highest status offered by the forum. According to RealSelf.com: "Doctors at the Platinum Level are the most active and dedicated members of the RealSelf.com community. They share their knowledge by frequently posting photos and answering questions."

RealSelf.com is one of the web's largest online communities, dedicated entirely to sharing information about cosmetic treatments. Millions of visitors frequent the site for unbiased information on treatments ranging from plastic surgery to laser vision correction to cosmetic dentistry. "I am very proud to be a distinguished member of this online community," says Dr. Mosher. "I find that the principles behind RealSelf.com align well with my personal philosophy of being very open and informative with my patients. Real questions deserve real answers. "

Dr. Mosher serves as a physician advisor on Realself.com, providing informative answers to questions about all aspects of plastic surgery. "I try to be as straightforward and thorough as I can when I post responses to patient questions. Of course, I can't be as thorough in an online post as I am in a consultation. For example, when I discuss breast augmentation and implants at my Vancouver area practice, I can take much more time, and I can actually show the woman her options. Every patient is unique and requires a personalized approach in order to achieve the best results."

Dr. Mosher sees tremendous value in helping patients and potential patients through this forum. "Sometimes the posts are from someone who just had surgery and has questions about his or her recovery. In other cases, the questions come from women or men considering a surgical or nonsurgical treatment. I feel that, as a Royal College certified plastic surgeon, I have an obligation to help these people by providing credible answers." As a physician at the Platinum Level, Dr. Mosher has proven to be one of the most responsive of RealSelf.com's doctor members.

With the boom in the cosmetic industry, there is no shortage of information on the web about cosmetic treatments. Unfortunately, there is a lot of misinformation out there, according to Dr. Mosher "Through RealSelf.com, I can help to dispel the myths and establish realistic expectations for procedures and recovery," says Dr. Mosher. RealSelf.com also has the endorsement of several prestigious plastic surgery societies, including the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and the Canadian Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, in which Dr. Mosher holds active membership.

Dr. Mathew Mosher is founder and director of YES Medspa and Cosmetic Surgery Centre, one of the largest solo cosmetic plastic surgery practices in Canada. He is a fellow of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, a past president of the Canadian Laser Aesthetic Surgery Society, and an educator of plastic surgery residents and practicing plastic surgeons. At his Vancouver practice, Dr. Mosher specializes in advanced techniques in cosmetic surgery as well as state-of-the-art non-surgical options. Because of the diversity of treatments he offers, patients have the freedom to choose the procedures that work best for their needs and lifestyles. In addition to his aesthetic plastic surgery work, Dr. Mosher volunteers with Project H.A.N.D.S. to provide plastic and reconstructive surgery for people in need in remote areas of Guatemala.
