What happens during my cosmetic surgery consultation?
The consultation is a vital part in making your decision on whether you should have cosmetic surgery. Plan on spending approximately 1-1/2 hours meeting with Dr. Broadway and his staff. During the consultation, you will:

• Be asked to fill out a detailed medical history form. This will give Dr. Broadway an opportunity to assess if you are a good candidate for surgery. He will also discuss your past surgical experience and current medical status.

• Dr. Broadway will meet with you and discuss the surgery itself and the risks involved. He will review the different options available. This is a good opportunity to ask any questions or concerns you may have about the surgery.

• Dr. Broadway and a Patient Coordinator will examine you and thoroughly measure you. Based on this examination, a recommendation will be made on the best surgery option for you.

• After the examination, the Patient Coordinator will show you before & after pictures and will go over a final quote of your surgery fees and explain what is needed to schedule your surgery. You can schedule your surgery then or can call us after you have had time to consider your options. We will do everything we can to make you feel comfortable in your decision and share with you any other information you require.

Do you offer an overnight stay option?
Yes, Crown Point Surgery Center offers an overnight stay. Our goal is to provide you with personalized care and optimum surgical results. We will work hard to make your recovery as pleasant as possible.

Why do you promote massage therapy after surgery?
We have always endorsed massage therapy as a wonderful addition to your healing process after having cosmetic surgery. We recommend massage immediately following surgery with a specially-trained therapist who understands the intricacies of your surgery. Massage helps to speed up your recovery and will enhance your entire surgical process.

Why must patients give up smoking prior to certain cosmetic surgery procedures?
Patients undergoing a facelift or tummy tuck must give up smoking one month prior to surgery. Smoking inhibits blood flow and oxygen to the skin and can seriously interfere with the healing process or it may increase the risk of infection.
