Abstract :

Acosmetic patient visit has specific nuances that a regular medical visit does not have. Many of the treatments given and issues addressed are for conditions that are not pathologic, but rather are normal physiologic phenomena. Therefore, the preoperative assessment is a crucial component in the selection & management of cosmetic patients. This talk will focus on understanding the patient?s concerns for aesthetic improvement & include other aspects like a thorough evaluation of the patient?s medical and psychosocial history, a detailed examination of the area of concern, discussion of potential interventions, photographic documentation, and informed consent.
