Surgical Procedures

Surgery can address cosmetic goals unachievable through other methods of treatment. Plastic Surgeons are extensively trained in the art of surgery specifically to address these goals. Once you have identified a concern, a plastic surgery consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon will be scheduled. The consultation will identify concerns, take a detailed health history, perform a physical exam, and include recommendations and detailed discussion about any proposed surgery. Questions will be answered directly by your surgeon. Surgery and healing can be very stressful and demanding on your body. You should be at your maximal state of health for plastic surgery to minimize perioperative risk. Poor health, some medications, or nicotine use may make elective, cosmetic surgery contraindicated. A surgical consultation will address overall health and make appropriate recommendations.

You will meet with a practice manager to further discuss scheduling and financing options. Once
scheduled, you will return for a preoperative visit with your surgeon to answer any remaining questions about your procedure and to give you specific information about postoperative care and recovery at home. Your plastic surgery procedure will be performed in an accredited operating room staffed by an MD Anesthesiologist, nurse anesthetist, and a licensed staff of skilled nurses and surgical technicians with experience in plastic surgery procedures. You will have frequent follow-up office visits with your plastic surgeon to follow your healing. Time for healing will vary depending on the scope of yourprocedure.
