Your total journey to an enhanced look…..
We feel confident that we have perfected our system of treatment for facial plastic surgery and non-surgical enhancement. So together, our staff has created a step-by-step process that represents the various stages of refinement at our office, something we like to call The Facial Refinement Experience™.
The following descriptions are designed to give our prospective patients an idea of the comprehensive care they can expect to receive at our facial plastic surgery center in Springfield, Missouri:
If you’re reading this, you’re probably curious about some kind of facial plastic surgery or non-surgical cosmetic enhancement. That’s what the Discovery Phase is all about.
While you gather information, our trained staff will help you sort through the fact and fiction you may have seen or heard. We’ll answer questions about various procedures, costs, and recovery times. You’ll be able to attend a free quarterly facial plastic surgery seminar held in Springfield, Missouri; Rogers, Northwest Arkansas, and other convenient locations where you can meet Dr. LaFerriere and the staff, tour our facilities, and learn about surgical and non-surgical cosmetic enhancement. You’ll find out why choosing the right facial plastic surgeon can make all the difference in your experience and final results.
Finally, you’ll meet one-on-one with facial plastic surgeon Keith LaFerriere, M.D., F.A.C.S., to discuss your goals, concerns, and the solutions that will achieve your desired results. In discussing realistic treatment options, Dr. LaFerriere will be very honest about what can and cannot be achieved with facial plastic surgery. He will explain details of proposed procedures, placement of incisions, any risks involved, and pre-operative and post-operative care and restrictions. You’ll even receive personalized on-screen digital cosmetic imaging to help you envision your new appearance after your facial plastic surgery procedure is complete.
Our patient coordinator will meet with you following your consultation with Dr. LaFerriere. She will give you detailed information about the procedures discussed, facial plastic surgery pricing information, payment options, and expected recovery times.
We’ve found that informed patients have the most positive facial plastic surgery experiences. That’s why we prepare you for each step of your procedure, without any mysteries or unanswered questions.
After you’ve made the decision to proceed with facial refinement, we’ll explain each step of the process. You’ll receive a packet of information detailing all of the pre-surgical information you’ve learned. We’ll also schedule any tests that you may require.
Just prior to your facial plastic surgery procedure, you’ll come into our Springfield, Missouri office for a pre-op appointment. We’ll give you last-minute details about your procedure that day, and we’ll answer any and all questions you may have.
This is the day your procedure is performed by Dr. LaFerriere. Because your comfort and privacy is our priority, you’ll be accompanied to your own private surgical suite (and recovery area.)
Dr. LaFerriere’s years of experience, along with a nursing staff dedicated only to facial plastic surgery, will reassure and relax you every step of the way. Dr. LaFerriere has more than 26 years of expertise, and uses cutting edge techniques that will ultimately achieve better results than you might find elsewhere.
You’ll talk with Dr. LaFerriere just prior to and again after your procedure for detailed instructions on your care. You’ll be dismissed from our recovery area only after you feel confident that you are ready to go home and begin your healing process.
The care you receive following your procedure is vital for ensuring the best results and a speedy recovery.
You will probably have questions about aftercare and healing. We are available 24 hours a day to answer any questions or concerns. You’ll also have scheduled appointments with Dr. LaFerriere to personally check your healing and reveal your exciting results!
If you are traveling or concerned with privacy, we can recommend secluded accommodations specially suited for recovering facial plastic surgery patients. And of course the private entrance at our Springfield, Missouri facility assures that your office visits are always confidential.
This is the exciting final touch of your refinement process. Your healing has progressed to the point where you can wear makeup and resume your normal activities.
Now, our trained aesthetic team will show you how to accentuate your facial plastic surgery results to make your transformation even more amazing! During your personal consultation we’ll show you how to apply makeup in the final stages of healing. Plus you’ll learn to protect your facial plastic surgery results with long-term skin care. We even carry a full line of premium products at our office in Springfield, Missouri proven to enhance your skin for the smooth, youthful look you desire.
Your youthful appearance is an ongoing journey. We will stay in contact with you through follow-up appointments, as well as our quarterly newsletter filled with ideas, tips, case histories, information about the latest facial plastic surgery and non-surgical treatments, and more.
And we want you to stay in contact with us! There are many options available—both surgical and non-surgical—to further enhance your appearance. We hope you will continue to look to us as your complete facial care advisors and we encourage you to contact our facial plastic surgery center in Springfield, Missouri to schedule any future facial refinement procedures.
