Quick answer

For non-invasive devices, look for a clinician willing to say no when devices won't deliver. For surgical contouring, surgeon case volume, revision-rate transparency and structured recovery support are the variables that matter most.

Key takeaways

  • 01Willingness to refuse over-promised cases is a green flag
  • 02Surgical case volume in your indication > device brand
  • 03Revision policy must be in writing
  • 04Structured recovery support, not just a discharge sheet
