CONSULTATION
Miami has been known to be the premier destination for body contouring. We are thrilled to have such a diverse clientele base and strive to make the experience at Aesthetics and Plastic Surgery Institute of South Florida as pleasant and gratifying. We highly recommend that our out-of-state patients fly in for a face-to-face consultation prior to surgery in order to meet your ultimate goals. To schedule your initial consultation, please fill out a virtual consultation intake form which can be found in our web page. Please submit photos of front, right and left view of your problem area(s). Within the first 24 hours, a patient coordinator will contact you to schedule a virtual consultation with your physician of choice, where you can discuss your concerns and desired outcome in detail. Throughout this consultation, the treating physician will recommend procedures that can help you meet your aesthetic goal and help you choose the treatments that are right for you. Once the consultation is completed, the patient coordinator will discuss the cost of surgical anesthesia, facility fees, and any other associated costs for your surgery.
