Consultations

Patients interested in cosmetic surgery should make an appointment to see Dr. Solomon in consultation. In this way, they can get personalized information that will address their specific needs from an expert's point of view.

The consultation can last anywhere from half an hour to an hour, depending upon the patient and his/her questions. During the consultation the Doctor addresses the patient's specific concerns. He discusses the various options available. These can be surgical and non-surgical, depending upon the individual issues being addressed.  

For surgeries, Dr. Solomon will explain, in detail, what the procedure entails including the surgical approach, incisions, scars, the anesthesia and the expected recovery. For those individuals who are interested in pre and post operative photographs, these are available to you at your consultation and any time thereafter.

After meeting with the doctor, the patient is then taken into the cosmetic waiting room where he/she is given reading material about the procedure in question. At that time, the patient is introduced to our Cosmetic Consultant. She will talk about fees for the procedure. She will also address any additional questions and concerns. 

 We know that once a patient leaves our office, there are always many questions that come to mind. Our cosmetic consultant and any of our office staff are always available to you should you need any further assistance or information.

Dr. Solomon charges a minimal consultation fee which is applied to the procedure at the time of scheduling.
