You are healing. Here is what is normal, what is not, and what to do about both.

Guide 01

How To Choose A Surgeon

Board certified in plastic surgery, not just "board certified." Operates in an accredited facility. Shows you results on bodies like yours. Has a real answer for who you call at 2 a.m. Everything else is marketing.

Guide 02

How To Interview Your Surgeon

You are the one hiring. Ask how many of this exact procedure they did last year. Ask who handles complications and how fast. Ask what they would not do on your body. A good surgeon likes these questions. A salesperson does not.

Guide 03

Questions To Ask At Your Consult

Which technique, and why for me? Where will my surgery happen, and who gives anesthesia? What is your revision policy? What does week one actually look like? What is the total cost, with nothing left out? Who do I call if something feels wrong?

Guide 04

Plan Your Recovery At Home

Set up the room before surgery, not after. A recliner or a wedge. Everything within arm's reach. Someone with you for the first 72 hours. Meals made. Two weeks cleared. If that is not possible at home, that is what a recovery house is for.

Guide 05

What To Buy Before Surgery

Wedge pillow. Button-front tops. Stool softener. Your garment, plus one spare. Arnica for bruising. Loose shoes. Wipes and dry shampoo. A long phone cable. The procedure-specific lists live on each procedure page.

Guide 06

Mental Prep

Decide who you tell and what you tell them. Expect day five to feel like a mistake; it is swelling and anesthesia leaving your body, not the truth. Write down why you did this, and read it then.
