What do you wish your patients would stop doing?

I wish they would stop:

  • Running to the mirror after surgery expecting to see the final results
  • Smoking, and yes, lying about smoking (we can smell you!)
  • Sunbathing (wrinkles, sun spots and skin cancer are NOT pretty)
  • Picking, squeezing, scratching at pimples
  • Waiting til 5:01 on Friday afternoon to call the office with a problem they've known about all day
