I have seen posts where people talk about their pre-op appointments and multiple consultation appointments. What is a typical breast augmentation schedule from initial consult to post-op appointments?
Answer: It depends when you want your surgery . Sometimes could be as early as one week if in good health. I recommend an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and be measured. After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants, and they choose what looks right for them. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size and style breast implant is right for them. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Answer: Consultative process Hi there,Every surgeon has a different practice but I would say most patients have their initial consultation, pre-operative appointment, surgery date, and then 2-6 post-ops over the first year depending on their procedure and wound healing. Hope that helps!

Answer: Time from consult to surgery On average, it takes 6-10 weeks from initial consultation to day of surgery in my practice and many other busy plastic surgeon practices.

Answer: Timing The answer to your question is that it depends. Some patients will schedule surgery after seeing one surgeon, while others prefer to hear multiple opinions. Once surgery is scheduled, based on your time frame and the surgeon's, there is typically another preoperative appointment. Sometimes this is with the surgeon and sometimes this is with another staff member. This will detail how to prepare for your surgery day. After surgery your surgeon will want to see you at scheduled intervals to monitor your progress and answer questions. Often times the first appointment will be within the first week of surgery, and then become further spaced after that as long as there are no concerns.
