Your Consultation for Plastic Surgery in Los Angeles

At Rodeo Drive Plastic Surgery, we have several goals we work to achieve during your consultation. We want to get to know you, including why you desire surgery, what your current situation is, and what you hope to achieve with plastic surgery. We want to educate you about the plastic surgery procedure you desire, including what it can and cannot achieve. We want to begin taking steps to assure your maximum safety during and after the procedure.

This is all a fairly tall order, and requires us to spend some time with you. We find that being thorough when we first meet you helps to assure the best possible outcome and overall experience with you plastic surgery. Your consultation entails several steps. First you provide us with some written information about why you came to see us, what sort of plastic surgery interests you, and your medical history. We have a beautiful and elegant reception area. We hope you become comfortable here so you are relaxed during your time with the doctor.

Next you go into our consultation room where you will meet your Los Angeles plastic surgeon. If you are seeing us about an issue regarding your body, such as for liposuction, tummy tuck, breast augmentation, or gynecomastia surgery, we will ask you to change into a robe so we can examine you effectively. If you are seeing us for information about procedures on your face, such as facelift, eyelift, rhinoplasty, Botox, or other nonsurgical facial rejuvenation there is of course no need to change your clothes.

Your doctor will ask you about your medical history what you hope to achieve with plastic surgery. He will examine you with all this in mind and then discuss how plastic surgery can help you address your specific goals. During your examination you will be seen by the plastic surgeon along with our patient coordinator.

We will discuss all the phases of your plastic surgery. This includes the period before the procedure, the details of the surgery itself, and the recovery. We will address when you can resume various physical activities, when you should return to work, and the timing of your post-procedure visits back at our Los Angeles plastic surgery center. We will answer all of your questions in detail. It often helps if you bring a list of your plastic surgery questions with you to the consultation, so you do not forget some of the things that you might want to ask about.

Next you will go to our manager’s office (which has a lovely view of Rodeo Drive with the “Hollywood” sign in the background) where our patient coordinator will show you before and after photos of our work. We will discuss scheduling and fee issues and at this time we will work to arrange plastic surgery financing if you desire it. We will give you our written pre-op and post-procedure doctor’s instructions and discuss them with you, so you know exactly what to expect before and after your procedure. Finally, we will show you where your procedure will take place, by giving you a tour of our fully certified outpatient surgery center.
