COMMON QUESTIONS
Plastic Surgery Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know which plastic surgery procedure is right for me?
During your consultation, Dr. Montante will evaluate your anatomy,
discuss your concerns and goals, and recommend the procedure—or
combination of procedures—that may be most appropriate for you.
Can I combine multiple plastic surgery procedures?
Some procedures may be combined when medically and surgically
appropriate. Examples may include breast lift with augmentation
or tummy tuck with liposuction. Whether procedures can safely be
combined depends on the individual patient and surgical plan.
How long is recovery after plastic surgery?
Recovery varies considerably by procedure and by patient.
During your consultation, you will discuss expected activity
restrictions, return-to-work considerations, postoperative care,
and the general recovery timeline for your proposed surgery.
Am I a good candidate for plastic surgery?
Candidacy depends on your health, anatomy, goals, expectations,
and the procedure being considered. A consultation and medical
evaluation are necessary to determine whether a procedure is
appropriate for you.
How soon can I return to work?
Return-to-work timing varies by procedure, the extent of surgery,
your individual healing process, and the physical demands of your
occupation. Dr. Montante will discuss a more personalized recovery
timeline during your consultation.
Will plastic surgery leave scars?
Surgical procedures involve incisions and therefore produce scars.
Incision placement, scar length, and how scars mature vary by
procedure and patient. Dr. Montante will review expected incision
locations and scar considerations before surgery.
