Interested in a ballpark figure. I've wondered for a while how difficult (or easy) it is to get a patient to allow for the posting of their pics; especially the after shots. I know many docs do ~1 surgery a day, but I have no clue what % are able to be shared, and how easy it is for the clinic to get the proverbial pick of the litter, to post online.

That's an interesting question. There's no way in hell they'll get me to agree to posting my face in a picture. I don't know why, because it will be mostly just people like me looking at them but I won't do it.

I'll do it if they put that bar across my face, but that's about it.

thanatopsis,

Hopefully some our physician or consultant members will contribute to this thread so they are more likely to know.

I know that most patients probably aren't comfortable putting their face online however, I think the number of allowances would go up significantly if they were told their face would be covered and identity sealed.
