FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Am I a Good Candidate for Plastic Surgery?
Good candidates for plastic surgery are generally in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and are considering surgery for their own personal goals. During your consultation, your ACPS plastic surgeon will review your medical history, discuss your concerns and desired outcome, and recommend the treatment options best suited to your individual needs.
How Long Will It Take to Recover From Plastic Surgery?
Recovery varies depending on the procedure or combination of procedures performed. Swelling, bruising, and discomfort are common during the initial recovery period, and some procedures require more downtime than others. Your plastic surgeon will provide detailed post-operative instructions, including when you can safely return to work, exercise, and other normal activities, and will monitor your progress throughout recovery.
Where Will My Surgery Be Performed?
Surgical procedures are performed at the ACPS Surgicenter, our private surgical facility. The facility is Quad A-accredited and licensed by the Texas Department of State Health Services, providing patients with a private setting designed specifically for surgical care.
Do You Offer Financing?
Yes. ACPS offers financing options through CareCredit and PatientFi to help qualified patients manage the cost of their procedure. Financing options can be discussed during your consultation.
