Consider Your Goals

Before you visit our office, it’s important to really think about what you hope to achieve through your cosmetic procedure. Although you may want a nose like a certain actor’s or breasts like a certain supermodel, think about specifics that relate to you. Statements such as, “I want my breasts to be fuller but natural-looking,” or “I don’t like the bump on the bridge of my nose” help our surgeons visualize what you’d like to achieve. Your surgeon will give you his expert assessment of how your goals relate to your unique anatomy and set of features.

Schedule Your Consultation

Once you’re ready to share your cosmetic goals with one of our plastic surgeons, it’s time to request a consultation. In our office, consultations for cosmetic procedures are free. You may use our online form or you can call our office at (408) 356-4241 for an appointment. When you speak with a member of our office staff, have your calendar and basic information on hand, including:

• The type of procedure you are considering
• Available dates and times
• Your phone number, email address, mailing address, and other basic information

We value your time. Once you’ve scheduled your free consultation, we ask that you please make it a priority to keep the appointment!

Take Care of Paperwork

After scheduling your consultation, we will email you the necessary forms with a security code and a link. (Protecting your privacy is important to us.) For your convenience, you can complete the forms before your appointment and send them back to us through the links provided. Feel free to call our office if you need assistance with this process.

Your Consultation

When you come in on appointment day, you’ll be welcomed by one of our staff members and then asked for a form of identification and an insurance card. Although most cosmetic procedures are not covered by insurance, we’re required to ask because we have a surgical center within our office. We will also check to see whether any portion of your treatment may be covered by insurance.

Your surgeon will begin the consultation by chatting with you. You will have time to discuss your goals, express concerns, and ask questions. If you’re hesitant about sharing personal matters with a physician, be reassured that most patients find it easy to communicate with any of our plastic surgeons. Keep in mind that they all have extensive experience in all areas of plastic surgery. It’s likely they have helped people with concerns similar to yours many times. This visit is a time to share your personal concerns in a comfortable and professional atmosphere.

In addition to reviewing your goals, your surgeon will review your medical history. Depending on the situation, your blood pressure and weight may also be checked. You may be asked to change into a patient gown in private, so the surgeon can examine the areas you’d like to improve.

After an unhurried conversation and thorough assessment, your surgeon will recommend a treatment plan that incorporates your unique goals and anatomy.

Review Fees & Financial Considerations

At the end of your consultation, our patient coordinator will review the costs associated with the procedure you want. You will be given a written estimate that will include fees associated with your specific procedure, including:

• Surgical time
• Anesthesia
• Any medical devices needed (such as implants)
• Compression garments or other materials
• Postsurgical care

We offer a variety of financing options to accommodate most budgets.

Schedule Your Procedure

Many of our patients choose to schedule their procedures at the end of the consultation. When you do so, you’ll be asked for a non-refundable deposit that will be applied to your surgical costs.

We know how important this journey is to you. It is our mission to help you achieve your cosmetic goals and to do so in safety and comfort.
