Your Consultation
Surgical Procedures and Those Involving Injections or Medication
Cosmetic surgery is a serious decision that requires a generally healthy physical and emotional state. For your safety, every patient who hopes to pursue a surgical procedure or one that involves an injection first meets with Dr. Edelstein for a private medical consultation. It is only after a thorough examination that Dr. Edelstein determines whether you are suitable to undergo your procedure, based on his medical expertise. Because our values are governed by honesty and professional integrity, a higher rate of satisfaction is generally achieved as a result of this close screening process.
Expect your consultation to be a comprehensive one, during which you'll discuss your goals and expectations of surgery, undergo a medical assessment to ensure you are physically and emotionally ready, as well as address all of your questions and concerns. You'll receive reliable information regarding the procedure, including your realistic potential outcome and the related side effects, risks and complications. You won't feel rushed - you can also take this time to find out if surgery is right for you. An information packet will be given to you containing the details of the procedure you’re interested in, so you can review it at home.
After your consultation, Dr. Edelstein will then provide you with a summary of your consultation and a specific quote for the procedure in which you’re interested. The quote will detail all fees for the procedure except for any prescription medications you may require. This information is generally sent to you within 24 hours of your consultation.
There is a nominal fee for the initial consultation with Dr. Edelstein. However, at the time of booking your consultation, you'll be asked a couple of pre-screening questions (for example, regarding your Body Mass Index) to verify your potential viability for your procedure. The amount paid is deducted from the cost of your procedure should you decide to go ahead.
Non-Surgical Procedures
If your requested procedure is non-surgical and does not involve an injection or medication, you'll meet with Petra Hughes, our head Medical Aesthetician. Petra has over 10 years of experience as a Medical Aesthetician and routinely teaches doctors, nurses and other aestheticians how to accurately perform a variety of medi-spa procedures to achieve optimal results. Your consultation with Petra involves an assessment of your concern, a discussion of your medical history and your expectations. She'll also ask you about your current lifestyle habits. This in-depth examination enables Petra to determine the most suitable course of treatment.
Consultation with Petra is complimentary.
