Plastic Surgeon in Orlando Discusses the Importance of Managing Patient Expectations
Dr. Jon Paul Trevisani advises against plastic surgery procedures that are unsafe or unable to accomplish the patient’s desired outcomes.
Orlando, FL — When patients come to his Orlando area plastic surgery practice seeking a specific procedure, Jon Paul Trevisani, MD says he first must assess the individual’s overall health and aesthetic goals in order to determine whether or not they meet the candidacy requirements for that particular surgery. He explains that although a patient may feel they know what they want, if a procedure is potentially unsafe or is not designed to achieve the outcome the patient is looking for, he has a moral obligation to advise against it.
Patients who are not candidates for the procedure they initially wanted can still often achieve their aesthetic goals through an alternative procedure or treatment, says Dr. Jon Paul Trevisani. He notes that meeting with the patient one-on-one in a consultation can allow him to recommend a safer procedure that may still be able to accomplish what the patient is hoping for — in some cases, he says the alternative treatment can be even more effective than the procedure the patient was originally considering.
The Orlando plastic surgeon says helping patients set realistic expectations about what a procedure can and cannot do is extremely important. If the surgery the patient requests is unlikely to meet their expectations or may lead to complications later on, Dr. Jon Paul Trevisani will suggest a different approach. Dr. Jon Paul Trevisani states that it is also fairly common for board-certified plastic surgeons to advise individuals who present with signs of body dysmorphic disorder to avoid certain surgical procedures.
To help those who are interested in plastic surgery find the procedure that is best for their unique wants and needs, Dr. Jon Paul Trevisani strongly suggests scheduling a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon, and he urges patients to be flexible and avoid fixating on a specific procedure, as it may not be right for everyone.
