Worried about before and after photo privacy

Photography before/after plastic surgery procedures is quite routine (useful in many ways) and does not require patient consent. However, utilizing the photographs ( for example in office albums or online sites) does require patient consent.  If you have not provided this consent, you likely have nothing to worry about. Given that you have expressed your concerns to your plastic surgeon, I think that you can put these concerns to rest. Enjoy the outcome of the procedure performed.

If you are unsure if you signed a consent form for use of photos, ask your surgeon for your records.  Plastic surgeons store the photos for future reference in a secure manner.    You should not have concerns if your plastic surgeon assured you that your images are not published.,
