Your vision, our expertise.

Good candidates are in overall good health, have realistic expectations about results, and are seeking surgery for personal reasons rather than to please others. During your consultation, Dr. Dawson will thoroughly evaluate your health history, current condition, and aesthetic goals to determine if a specific procedure is right for you.

Your consultation with Dr. Dawson is a thorough, no-pressure discussion of your goals and concerns. You'll review your medical history, discuss procedure options, view before/after photos of similar cases, and receive a customized treatment plan. We encourage you to bring questions, as this is the perfect time to address any concerns you may have.

Recovery varies significantly by procedure. Minimally invasive treatments may require little to no downtime, while more extensive surgeries might necessitate 1-3 weeks away from work and 4-6 weeks before resuming strenuous activities. Dr. Dawson provides detailed recovery guidelines tailored to your specific procedure and personal healing factors.

Insurance typically covers reconstructive procedures that address functional issues, such as breast reduction for back pain. Purely cosmetic procedures are generally not covered. Our office staff can help determine potential coverage and discuss financing options for procedures not covered by insurance.

The longevity of results varies by procedure and individual factors. While some procedures offer permanent structural changes, natural aging continues. Factors affecting longevity include the procedure type, your age, genetics, lifestyle, and maintenance care.

Patient safety is our highest priority. Dr. Dawson is board-certified and performs procedures in accredited surgical facilities that maintain the highest safety standards. We conduct thorough pre-operative assessments, use state-of-the-art monitoring equipment, and follow strict protocols for infection prevention and emergency preparedness.
