Did you know that healthy patients – with a stable weight, who don’t smoke – are far more likely to have successful surgery outcomes? Persons with unhealthy lifestyles face greater risks and complications when they undergo surgery, so with the majority of those patients, it is wiser for the surgeon to simply forgo the procedure.
Those interested in cosmetic and facial surgery should first go through a sort of ‘lifestyle makeover,’ modifying their habits until they have reached a satisfactory state of health. We want our patients to have the best surgical experience and outcome possible, so we ask them to focus on being healthy. The ideal patient refrains from smoking or using illegal drugs, has a stable weight, and realistic expectations about cosmetic surgery.
Contact us for a consultation and we can provide more specific information on health and surgery outcomes.
