FACIAL PLASTICS FAQs

Facial Plastic Surgery Frequently Asked Questions

Many of our patients have general concerns when it comes to their upcoming facial plastics surgery procedure and the experience they'll have. We've compiled the questions we receive the most along with the answers below.

Please remember that these are general answers and your specific experience may differ from other patients.

Cosmetic surgery is mostly an elective procedure where the patient requests surgery to alter and improve the physical appearance of a specific part of their body.

Reconstructive surgery is mostly performed to correct the functionality and/or appearance of an abnormal structure of the face or body that is caused by a congenital defect, trauma, tumor, disease, infection, or developmental abnormality.

Michigan state law prohibits you from driving with any amount of a controlled substance in your system. If you get stopped with a controlled substance in your system, you put yourself in danger of being charged with a DUI.

With most of our facial plastic procedures, you will be fully sedated. As these are all outpatient procedures, we strongly recommend having a driver. Once you leave our office, we are not liable for your decision to drive or not.

Immediately after the procedure, some patients may experience feeling groggy or nauseous. These are normal side effects of the anesthesia.

Although these risks are not common, you should be aware they can happen. There is the risk of complication related to infection. Other risks may include scarring and poor wound healing.

Many of these can be reduced or removed if you follow post-procedure instructions that will be provided to you.
