What to Expect at Your Plastic Surgery Consultation
We all have visions of how we would like to look, but taking that first step can be intimidating. At Carmel Cosmetic & Plastic Surgeons, Dr. Grasee and Dr. Bergman go out of their way to make sure patients feel welcome and heard. They want each patient to feel comfortable sharing their thoughts and goals so they can explore all available options. Whether you are considering a subtle enhancement or a transformative procedure, our surgeons and staff are here to help you feel confident, informed, and comfortable from the very beginning.
Our plastic surgeons never rush patients in and out. The consultation is the golden moment where your aesthetic goals can be defined. A plastic surgery consultation is more than just a conversation—it’s the foundation for your entire aesthetic journey.
At your initial consultation, prior to meeting your surgeon, you will view an informational DVD about your intended procedure. Next, you will meet your surgeon and she will discuss with you your specific goals and expectations. Your chosen surgical procedure, the risks and complications, as well as the postoperative recovery will be reviewed at length. You will be examined, your measurements will be taken, and you will be photographed. Dr Grasee or Dr Bergman will design a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and goals. All your questions will be answered.
There will be before and after pictures of other patients who have consented to have their pictures viewed available for you to see at your consultation. Additionally, there are photographs available for you to view at our website photo gallery.
