Choosing the right plastic surgeon for your procedure is a crucial decision that requires thorough research. It’s important to find a surgeon who specializes in the specific procedures you’re interested in rather than someone who performs a wide range of surgeries. While some surgeons offer everything from liposuction and tummy tucks to breast lifts and facial rejuvenation, others focus solely on a specific area, such as facial aesthetics, breast surgeries, or body contouring.
Working with a beauty expert and a surgical coordinator can be incredibly beneficial in this process. As experts in the aesthetics industry, they can guide you toward the right surgeon who aligns with your aesthetic goals.
Consulting with Multiple Surgeons
I always advise patients to consult with more than one surgeon to determine who they feel the most comfortable with. Building a strong relationship and establishing trust with your surgeon is essential. A good surgeon will take the time to listen to your concerns, understand your expectations, and provide you with a customized plan that suits your body and lifestyle.
Having built strong relationships with the plastic surgeons I work with, I feel confident that my patients are in excellent hands. I know they will receive comprehensive consultations, thorough preoperative guidance, and outstanding surgical results. My surgeons take a personalized approach, ensuring each patient gets the best possible outcome tailored to their unique needs.
The Role of a Surgical Coordinator
As a surgical coordinator, I work closely with the surgeon and their team to provide patients with the best care possible. My role is to guide you through your entire aesthetic journey, from preoperative preparation to postoperative recovery.
Pre-Surgery Preparation
Before your surgery, I help ensure you are fully prepared by:
Arranging necessary prescriptions.
Recommending the appropriate compression garments.
Creating a custom pre-op diet to strengthen your immune system and introduce you to a clean eating regimen that will help maintain your results.
Post-Surgery Care
Recovery is just as important as the surgery itself. I assist in coordinating postoperative care, which may include:
Hiring a post-op RN for procedures like facelifts or tummy tucks, where professional care is required for drain management, dressing changes, and post-op transportation
Scheduling sessions with a lymphatic massage therapist, which is essential for liposuction recovery
Recommending additional treatments, such as oxygen therapy, to accelerate healing
Maximizing Your Results
My ultimate goal is to ensure you are well-informed and prepared for every stage of your journey from injectables to full body makeovers. By planning accordingly, we can help you schedule the necessary time off work, arrange post-op assistance, and set realistic expectations for your recovery.
Most importantly, my goal is to help you maximize your results and feel confident in your transformation. This is your makeover glow-up, and I’m here to support you every step of the way!
