I have been considering a rhinoplasty for the past ten years, and finally have the means (and the bravery!) to go for it. As such, I'm ready to do it as soon as possible. How long does it typically take between the initial consult and the surgery? I'm in the process of scheduling consults with docs the second week of December, but would really love to have my surgery before Christmas so that I'll have the holidays to recover. Too rushed?
Be sure you find a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon that you are comfortable with and have seen many before and after pictures of his/her patients. Many surgeons offer computer imaging so you can see what results you can expect.December is usually the busiest month for most surgeons as patients want to take advantage of their holiday break. However things happen and openings can occur and patients that are ready can slip into these openings. When you schedule your consultation you might ask what openings are available and let the staff know you may want surgery soon. Surgeons who have their own surgery center (versus the hospital) may have a little more flexibilty in getting you on their surgery schedule.You need to stop taking all blood thinners such as aspirin at least two weeks before you want surgery. Good luck!
