What to Expect at Your Tummy Tuck Consultation
The consultation is your chance to:
At the consultation, you may be given an informed consent form. This is a form that outlines all the possible risks of an abdominoplasty that you will have to read and sign if you decide to have the surgery. This piece of paper states that you have been fully informed about all the risks and that you completely understand them. Just make sure that the surgeon does address the risks. Abdominoplasty is not a fail-proof surgery. No surgery is. This is flesh and blood, your flesh and blood, and you must understand what you are doing. The Physical Examination Scheduling Abdominoplasty Surgery and Preoperative Appointments You should come away from your consultation with enough information to make a decision about that surgeon. You can request a second meeting should you feel that more could have been covered. Your intuition should kick in about the surgeon. You are making a judgment of character, trust and faith in the surgeon's abilities. This is important, so listen to your instincts. If you feel at all unsure of going through with the tummy tuck with that surgeon, make a consultation appointment with someone else. |
