Before You Visit - Pasadena Facial Plastic Surgeon & ENT

ANY QUESTIONS? ASK DR. KAY

Welcome

We’re so excited to have you join us in the office!

Here are a few tips on the best ways to prepare for your visit.

Consultations with Dr. Kay are always free – we just require a $50 reservation fee which will be collected when you schedule your appointment. This $50 goes towards your procedure on the day of your visit. (Please note – advanced procedures require a $150 reservation fee which still goes towards the procedure).

Beauty consultations include before and after photos, a full beauty evaluation, and recommendations for future visits. Please expect to spend a few hours with us!

Free wifi is available in our lobby as well as complimentary coffee upon request.

No Alcohol

Do not consume alcoholic beverages at least a day before treatment, as alcohol may increase bruising risk.

Medications

Avoid anti-inflammatory/blood-thinning medications, if possible, 2 weeks before treatment, as blood-thinning effects can increase bruising and swelling risk. (Aspirin, Vitamin E, Ginkgo Biloba, Ginseng, St. John’s Wort, Omega 3/Fish Oil supplements, Ibuprofen, Motrin, Advil, Aleve, and other NSAIDs).

No Makeup

Do not come in with makeup applied, or be prepared to remove it.

Swelling

Try to schedule appointment two weeks before special events, as swelling can take up to two weeks to resolve.

Hydration

Eat well and stay hydrated before your appointment.
