How To Prepare For Your Plastic Surgery Consultation

March 26, 2024

A plastic surgery consultation is a crucial meeting that benefits both the patient and the surgeon. As a patient, it serves as a valuable opportunity for you to meet your potential plastic surgeon, ask questions, and explore which procedures can help you achieve your aesthetic goals. For the plastic surgery practice, the consultation is where we can begin to understand your unique goals by delving into your aesthetic desires and motivations for the changes you are hoping to make.


To ensure a productive consultation, here are a few questions you can contemplate prior to your consultation:


  • What improvements would you most like to make to your face?


  • What are your concerns or road blocks to having a cosmetic surgical procedure?


  • What do you expect to achieve for yourself and your life with any aesthetic improvement?


  • How likely is it that you would be satisfied with improvement and not “perfection”?


By reflecting on these questions, you can better articulate your desires and goals, facilitating a more personalized and successful consultation.


If you haven't scheduled a consultation at Visage Facial Plastic Surgery in Brookfield, Wisconsin and would like to, you can schedule your initial phone screening right here on our website. The pre-consultation phone call aims to ensure our compatibility with your aesthetic aspirations. Following this conversation, you can book an in-office consultation with Dr. Anand Patel for a future date.
