What is required to become a cosmetic surgeon?

So, I want to become a cosmetic surgeon when I grow up, but know nothing about it! I don't know if it involves internships, what other experience I would need, what the best schools for this are, or what i would need to study in school. Can someone help me out?What is required to become a cosmetic surgeon?
You'd need a 4 year college degree (major in anything but take the premed classes in bio, chem, physics and math), 4 years of medical school, 5 years general surgical residency, and additional training to specialize as a cosmetic surgeon. Pretty much every 4-year college and university offers premed, so go wherever you want - you can apply to the top med schools from anywhere. While in high school, take all the math and lab sciences you can, while still taking the classes necessary to get into college.What is required to become a cosmetic surgeon?
Most school these days have ';school counselors'; that question is part of their job. They do know those answer's. If your school does not have a counselor, then ask your teacher what he/she suggest as places/or people to talk with. Yea know, your principle has to be educated in so many different areas of knowledge, bet your principle could definitely point you in the right direction. Good luck and i hope you do full-fill your dream, we sure do have alot of people out there that need your help.
