Pre-Screening Evaluation
"If it doesn't look natural, it doesn't look good."
Proudly serving Springfield, Missouri, communities in Southwest Missouri, and Rogers, Bentonville, and Fayetteville in Northwest Arkansas.
We offer a pre-screening evaluation for patients who live outside of our area. We know that the decision to undergo facial cosmetic surgery is important and we want to save you from making an unnecessary trip to our office if there are obvious reasons you may not be a candidate. If you are interested in using this service, please continue to read below.
Realistic Expectations
It is important that you understand what facial plastic surgery can and cannot do. Facial refinement can have a profound impact on your appearance, but it will not change your whole life. It is intended to make you look better, not different. If you feel that facial cosmetic surgery is the answer to your problems, proceed with caution. If you have a healthy attitude about yourself and about surgery, you will most likely be very pleased with your results.
General Health
You should provide us with a complete medical history, to ensure that you are healthy and that surgery will be a safe option. If there are any questions about the state of your general health, we require you to get clearance from your medical doctor prior to surgery.
Pre-Screening Evaluation
To begin your pre-screening evaluation:
- Print and complete these Medical History forms.
- Take photos as directed below:
The necessary photos need to be head shots from the bottom of the neck to the top of the head, not full body.
- 1 Frontal View (face forward view)
- 2 Lateral Views (right and left side views)
- 2 Oblique Views (right and left ¾ views)
- 1 Basal View bottom of nose (FOR RHINOPLASTY EVALUATIONS)
| Important: Photos should be taken with a zoom lens, using good lighting and a solid color background. (A normal point and shoot wide angle lens will distort the face and nose too much for an accurate evaluation.) Any portrait studio (Olan Mills, JC Penney, etc.) should be able to provide these shots and at a relatively low cost. |

The pre-screening evaluation is NOT considered a surgical consultation or medical opinion and does not guarantee that you are a good surgical candidate. Its purpose is to identify any factors that would prevent you from having surgery.
