Patient FAQ

Asking these questions before will help you become comfortable and familiarize yourself with your desired cosmetic surgery procedure and plastic surgeon. Then it's up to you. Some patients conclude their consultation by scheduling surgery. Others want to think it over, while some return for a second or third consultation. We encourage you to do what feels right for you.

Cosmetic surgery is a big decision. You should not feel rushed into making a choice. Dr. Viera and his staff will do everything they can to help you make the right choice.
