Plastic surgery?

After years of considering plastic surgery, I've decided that I'm 100% sure I want to go through with it. I found a trusted surgeon who is very well known but I'm yet to see him. Can someone please tell me how the process works? Do I call to set up a consultation? Are the consultations free? And what happens after that? How long do I have to wait to actually do the sugery? I've done alot of research on the actual surgeries but I would like to know details about the consultation, and what the next step is.
Thanks!!

Answers:
you call and set up an appointment for a consultation. Most consultations are free. The surgeon explains the processes and what s/he is going to do. Sometimes they'll use computer software to show you how you will look afterward. They will also tell you risks, recovery time etc.
A good surgeon usually asks you to wait a month or more before surgery and will make sure you are 100% healthy.
GOOD LUCK!
Well, that's really what the consultation is all about - to find out the details of how the surgery is done, the costs involved, the medical ramifications, and similar questions. The decision of whether or not to charge for the initial consultation is entirely up to the doctor; some charge for it, and others don't. If you want to know if the doctor you have found charges, then call his office; I'm sure that the questions that you have are questions that the receptionist or one of the doctor's nurses have answered before.
only my opinion..
i think unless you have some sort of birth defect that plastic surgery should not be an option. Beauty comes from the inside not what others should see on the outside.
You would have to call and set up an appointment and depending on what procedure you are having done you may have to take a medical exam as well. I dont know if they cost anything. Good Luck in what ever choice you make. But remember one thing being pretty on the outside isnt as important as what is on the inside
Well no one needs plastic surgery we are all beatiful the way we are.
Yes, you have to contact the office of the surgeon and they will set up a consultation date for you. A lot of the time consultations are free, but that is not the case for every one. Your consultation will consist of having pictures taken, talk about the actual surgery and healing time, he'll show what changes he can make for you, etc...

Depending on how busy your surgeon is, you may have to wait atleast a month or more before you can actually have the surgery. For me I had to wait almost two months. Once you have the surgery you will continue to see your surgeon for probably the next year for check ups. For me, I came back three days later, then another week later, then it jumped to a month, then three, then a six month visit and then a year from the date of surgery. It might just depend on what type of surgery you have also.
Yes you have to call, I have never heard of any Doctors charging for a consultation, it depends on how busy your Doctor is and depending on the type of surgery if it is a day surgery or an overnight stay in hospital you will have to wait until they have a opening, I waited 2 days for one surgery and 9 or 10 days for the other one
Most PS's have a free consultation. Some do have a fee. I would call and ask before making an appt.

What would this be for?

With my consult, I talked with the PS for a bit about my issues and concerns, and saw the before/after pictures of some other patients. He took my weight and measurements and then filled out the information for the insurance company .

(NOTE: The surgery could be covered by insurance. Reductions--due to back pain, etc-- and reconstructions are usually covered, while augmentations are not usually covered. Check with your insurance for more details.).
