Plastic Surgery Consultation

A plastic surgery consultation is a preliminary service offered by Plastic Surgery Tijuana. It plays a crucial role in the decision-making process of a person considering plastic surgery.

The primary goal of a plastic surgery consultation is to help patients decide whether or not plastic surgery is the right option for them. It also aims to help patients evaluate and meet Dr. Rafael Camberos.

A plastic surgery consultation is the first step to obtaining cosmetic surgery. Thus, anyone who is thinking about undergoing such a procedure will benefit from this meeting.

By the end of the appointment, the patient should have all the information she/he needs to decide what kind of surgery is right for her/him, whether or not to push through with the procedure, and whether Dr. Camberos is the right fit for her/him.

During the consultation, Dr. Rafael Camberos may:

• Ask questions regarding the patient’s medical history
• Examine the body part that needs treatment
• Give his recommendation about what procedure to undergo

If the patient has a specific procedure in mind, Dr. Rafael Camberos may also explain:

• How the procedure is done
• What kind of anesthetic will be used
• The possible risks and complications of the surgery, their rates of occurrence, and how they are handled
• The expected time of recovery after the surgery
• Breakdown of costs and available financing options
• What the patient can expect from the treatment

Dr. Camberos may also show prospective patients photos of actual patients he has worked with in the past to give them a visual idea of what they can expect from the procedure.

An initial consultation is different from a pre-operative consultation, which is done when the patient is already scheduled for an upcoming operation.

How the Procedure Works

To ensure the safety and success of their desired procedure, prospective patients should gather information about the procedure, they are considering.

Aside from key details of the procedure, patients should ask about:

• Dr. Camberos’ credentials
• His experience in the specific type of surgery the patient requires (or how many times he has done the procedure)
• Success rates and results of his previous procedures
• The surgeon’s professional certifications and accreditations
• Any special training he has received related to the procedure the patient requires

During a plastic surgery consultation, it is best to observe:

• The quality of customer service
• The attentiveness and openness of receptionists and staff
• The cleanliness and comfort of the hospital or clinic

Patients are also encouraged to bring a friend, partner, parent, or relative during the procedure. The companion should be capable of helping the patient make a final decision.

Given the nature of plastic surgery, such that it is a major decision in the life of a patient and is, in many cases, irreversible, patients are advised to take all the time they need and ask all the questions they may have to guide them in making their decision.
