Making Decisions

The decision to undergo plastic or cosmetic surgery is an important decision and shouldn't be taken lightly. Although the procedures are common, widely performed and extremely safe, it is best to go into this situation as well informed as possible. Aside from the initial internet research or hearing about surgeons through a referral, you will want to set up a consultation with a plastic surgeon. This should be a surgeon that you feel comfortable with, have placed a call to the office for some general information, like their before and after photo's on their website gallery, and so on.

During your initial visit, you should make sure you meet with the surgeon directly and go over a key elements of the surgery. In the office of Dr Lloyd Krieger, this is always the case, but no always so at other placed. You will want to discuss any and all questions you may have, possible risks, your medical history, expectations post surgery. It is also important to ask where the actual surgery will be done. If the office has an operating room attached, it is always nice to ask for a tour so that you can really cover all of your bases. After meeting with the Doctor, you will most likely meet with a consultant who will go over surgery fees as well as scheduling and dates with you. From then, you will get some pre op lab work and be in touch with the office until your surgery date. If you or someone you know is looking into getting cosmetic work done, then do not hesitate to set up an appointment today!
