Each patient is treated with utmost respect, and confidentiality. During the initial consultation, time is taken to understand, analyze, and discuss the issues at hand in detail with the patient. No consultation is rushed and time is allowed to address all of the patient’s concerns. As the patient places his or her trust in the physician, it is the physician’s duty to recommend only what he truly believes to be in the patient’s best interest. If the patient is not a candidate for treatment, the reasons for this are discussed. The patient is educated and prepared in-detail prior to the procedure. Many sample photographs are reviewed with the patient to appropriately understand the patient’s interests and concerns. All surgical procedures are performed in an accredited surgery center or in a hospital as necessary. Only Board Certified or Board Eligible Anesthesiologists are requested. Time is taken to ensure that the operation is well-planned and well-executed. Repeated follow-up visits after surgery are critical and recommended for optimal results.
