Q: What should I expect after my treatment?  

A: You will be given written instructions on what to expect after your procedure. For all rejuvenation procedures, vigilant sun avoidance and generous use of sunscreen is important to maintain treatment benefits, prevent continued aging, and prevent complications. 

Q: Will the procedure be performed at my first visit?

A: The first visit is a consultation when the doctor will discuss with you various treatment options and details of the procedure(s). Most procedures require a separate visit so that our patients can make certain preparations. 

Q: How much will the procedure cost?

A: In most cases, an actual price cannot be given without a consultation visit, since the procedures are tailored to the needs of each patient and vary accordingly. 

Q: Will my insurance cover my procedure?

A: These procedures are strictly elective and cosmetic in nature. Insurance companies and Medicare are very clear in their policies regarding such cosmetic procedures. Therefore, we are unable to file insurance claims for them. 

Q: How do I prevent further aging?

A: Use a daily sunscreen, avoid cigarette smoke, and eat a healthy well-balanced diet.
