Question

I am interested in a chin lift procedure, not sure I require a full facelift but that can be decided at the consultation.

I have read the information off your website, my problem is time.

Would it at all be possible to have a consultation and the procedure carried out within the same day?

Answer

Having the consultation and cosmetic intervention within the same day is considered to be bad practice and against the best interests of the patients. Normally, according off period of a minimum of two weeks is recommended.

There are many aspects related to chin reshaping as well as facial rejuvenation that would need to be covered at the time of the consultation, and it is important that you find you have had a period of time to reflect on the discussion points and possibly formulate more questions.
