FAQs

Which procedures are available?

Comprehensive face procedures such as neck surgery, brow lift, eyelid surgery, nose reshaping, ear surgery, chin surgery, and cheek reduction are available, along with body procedures such as tummy tuck, liposuction or liposculpture, breast surgeries, buttock shaping, and reconstructive surgery. Non-surgical options include injectables and laser treatments for skin, hair removal, scars, and tattoos. Your plan is customized after consultation.

Do you offer warranties or guarantees?

Because healing varies by person, formal guarantees are uncommon. You’ll receive written pre- and post-op instructions, scheduled follow-ups, and the clinic’s revision policy when medically indicated.

Where is the clinic and how do I get there?

What are the hours and how long should I stay locally?

The clinic is open Monday–Friday 09:00–19:00 (UTC-05). Typical stays are about 5 days for eyelid surgery, about 7 days for rhinoplasty, otoplasty, or breast surgery, and often 10–14 days for tummy tuck. Injectables and laser treatments are usually same-day procedures with only brief restrictions.

Are non-surgical options right for me?

Often, yes. Botulinum toxin for wrinkles, migraine, or sweating, hyaluronic acid fillers for volume and lines, and lasers for skin refresh, hair removal, scars, or tattoos can delay or complement surgery. Your surgeon will advise based on your goals and medical history.
