Are you asking the right Questions?

a hundred ways to look younger

There are a hundred ways to look younger, such as having an eyelid lift, neck lift, Botox treatments, laser treatments, and liposuction, but many people forget the health risks and dangers of these procedures if not handled with proper concern. When considering these types of procedure it is very important to ask the right questions. “An informed consumer is a smart consumer” having knowledge on what procedure you want to get done will help you find a doctor who can better address your needs. Increasing your knowledge and asking the right question will improve the overall result of your procedure.

What are the right questions to ask?  The first question to ask your surgeon, after explaining your concerns is, “What treatment is right for me?” Your Board Certified Surgeon will know what procedure would best fit your needs, according to skin type and financial status. 

The second question is, “How much does it cost? All procedures have different pricing.  The length and complication of the procedure is a large factor in the total cost involved. The longer and more complicated the procedure the higher the cost.  

How can you prepare for your procedure? Asking your surgeon this question and following his/her guidelines will help you have a better recovery and improve outcome of your procedure.

 Have you viewed my medical history? If the cosmetic surgeon is not aware of your medical history or fails to ask for blood work before your procedure, you need a new doctor! Not having blood work before you go through any anesthesia is life threatening. No one should undergo any procedure without having the proper blood work done.

 What are the risks? Ask the surgeon the side effects of the anesthesia and procedure itself, “How will you feel after surgery and how to handle that side effects if they do occur?” 

Overall, everyone should have the opportunity to look and feel great, but it is important to conduct the proper research on both your desired procedure and surgeon to ensure the best possible results.
