Your initial consultation will include a thorough examination, discussion of your aesthetic goals, review of your medical history, and computer imaging to preview potential results. We'll also discuss the procedure details, recovery process, and answer all your questions.
Please bring your medical history, list of current medications, and any previous surgical records. It's helpful to have specific goals in mind and reference photos of results you like. You may also want to prepare questions about the procedure, recovery, and costs.
Computer imaging provides a visual approximation of potential results but is not a guarantee. The images help facilitate discussion about your goals and expectations. Actual results will vary based on your anatomy, healing process, and other individual factors.
Yes, we charge a consultation fee that is applied toward your procedure if you decide to move forward with surgery. This fee covers the time spent evaluating your case, discussing options, and developing a personalized treatment plan.
Procedure times vary significantly depending on the complexity. Rhinoplasty typically takes 2-3 hours, gynecomastia surgery 1-2 hours, and more extensive procedures like tummy tucks may take 3-5 hours. Your surgeon will provide a specific time estimate during your consultation.
We use different types of anesthesia depending on the procedure: local anesthesia with sedation for minor procedures, and general anesthesia for more extensive surgeries. All anesthesia is administered by board-certified anesthesiologists to ensure your safety and comfort.
All surgeries involve incisions, but we use advanced techniques to minimize scarring. Incisions are strategically placed in natural creases or concealed areas whenever possible. We also provide detailed scar care instructions to help scars fade significantly over time.
While plastic surgery provides long-lasting results, they are not entirely permanent. Your body will continue to age naturally, and factors like weight fluctuations, sun exposure, and lifestyle choices can affect long-term results. However, most patients enjoy their results for many years.
Recovery varies by procedure. Most patients need 1-2 weeks off work for initial healing, with gradual return to normal activities over 4-6 weeks. Strenuous exercise should typically be avoided for 6-8 weeks. We provide a detailed recovery timeline specific to your procedure.
We use multimodal pain management techniques including long-acting local anesthetics during surgery, prescription pain medication for the initial days, and transition to over-the-counter options as soon as appropriate. Most patients report discomfort rather than severe pain, which is well-managed with medication.
While you'll see immediate improvement after surgery, final results emerge gradually as swelling subsides. Most patients see significant results within 4-6 weeks, with continuing refinement over 3-6 months. Some procedures, like rhinoplasty, may take up to a year for final results to fully develop.
We provide comprehensive follow-up care including appointments at 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year after surgery. You'll also have 24/7 access to our medical team for any concerns. We provide detailed instructions for wound care, activity restrictions, and scar management.
We operate in accredited surgical facilities with board-certified anesthesiologists and follow strict safety protocols. Our facilities are equipped with advanced monitoring equipment, emergency supplies, and trained staff. We adhere to all national safety standards for cosmetic surgery procedures.
Common risks include bleeding, infection, scarring, asymmetry, and adverse reactions to anesthesia. Specific procedures have additional risks that we discuss during your consultation. We take extensive precautions to minimize these risks and have protocols in place to address any complications should they occur.
Good candidates are generally in good health, have realistic expectations, don't smoke, and are at a stable weight. During your consultation, we'll evaluate your medical history, examine your anatomy, and discuss your goals to determine if you're a suitable candidate for your desired procedure.
While we strive for excellent results, we understand that sometimes revision surgery may be desired. We discuss this possibility during your consultation and have policies in place regarding revision procedures. Most issues can be addressed once healing is complete, typically after 6-12 months.
