So You've Decided to Get Plastic Surgery....Got Questions?

You've taken the first step and set up a consultation with a plastic surgeon.  You have so many questions and concerns, right?  Well, your not alone,  this is an important life-changing decision.  There are many different things to consider.  It doesn't matter if you want to get liposuction, a face-lift, a breast augmentation, or a simple cosmetic procedure such as Botox injections.  These questions should remain the same. You want to know as much as possible about your prospective surgeon's skills, experience, and credentials.

Here's a list of the top ten questions you must ask before deciding if that surgeon is right for you.


1)   Are you Board Certified?

2)   How many times have you done this procedure?

3)   What other medical staff will assist with the procedure?

4)   Where will the procedure be performed?

5)   Do you have hospital privileges to perform this procedure?

6)   What type of anesthesia will be used during this procedure?

7)   What are the risks associated with this procedure?

8)   Can I see multiple before and after photos?

9)   Can you provide me with patient references who are happy with their results?

10) What is the breakdown of the fees associated with this procedure and do you offer financing?

Once your plastic surgeon has answered all of these questions, you can now have a better way to determine if you have chosen the right one.

At Sleek Surgical & MedSpa our patients are our priority.  Our Board Certified Plastic Surgeons are here to speak with you and help make you as comfortable as possible with your decision.
