About Our Practice

About Marietta Plastic Surgery – The Art of Enhancement

At Marietta Plastic Surgery, we believe that to get the best possible cosmetic surgery results, a balance must be struck between the skill of surgery and the art of creating beauty. Surgery is a science, following well-established rules and requiring careful attention to the workings of the human body. However, to achieve the best results for each patient, those rules must be applied to each individual in a unique way. At our Cobb County cosmetic surgery practice in Marietta, we believe that beauty comes, in large part, from the character and integrity that manifests itself in your natural appearance. That's why we believe in something we call the "art of enhancement," which is not a pre-packaged, impersonal procedure, but improvements individually tailored to each patient's goals, so that the results never camouflage the unique, natural beauty of the individual personality.

To get the best possible results for each individual, we schedule consultations with each of our Atlanta-area cosmetic surgery patients, during which we discuss goals, concerns, and the many possibilities available in our field. Armed with information from the knowledge and experience of our surgeons, our patients can decide what improvements they would like to see and which procedures are most suitable. From there, we can custom tailor their treatment to achieve the best possible appearance improvement. Because we design their treatment to highlight their best features and minimizing others, while maintaining a natural appearance, our patients leave our Cobb County offices with results that bring out their natural beauty without detracting from the features that define their individual character.

How can I articulate what I want done? Can I see an example?

Our cosmetic surgeons combine their years of experience with the best available technology to meet your individual needs. We use computer imaging to help our patients decide what changes will provide the look they want. A digital picture will be taken of you during your in-office consultation, and you and your surgeon will use a computer program to discover how various plastic surgery treatments will change the appearance of your face or body. By listening carefully to your goals and using computer imaging, our surgeons can plan the course of treatment that will achieve your desired result. At Marietta Plastic Surgery, we are committed to your satisfaction, and our unique blend of experience and technology is key to meeting that commitment.

How and when do I pay for surgical treatment?

We make every effort to offer Atlanta-area and Cobb County residents the services of a skilled cosmetic surgeon at an affordable price. We accept most major insurance plans for payment for cosmetic or reconstructive surgery procedures. Unfortunately, few strictly cosmetic surgery procedures are covered by traditional health care insurance policies.

A deposit is required at the time of scheduling surgery. Payment for your procedure is due in full at your pre-operative visit to our Atlanta-area offices, usually 10 days before your plastic surgery.

Available payment options are cash, check, MasterCard, VISA, American Express, Discover, or financing. The financing option at Marietta Plastic Surgery is available through a national company, and approval or denial can be determined within several hours of completing an application.

What do my fees cover? What if I cancel my surgery?

Payment includes the plastic surgeon's fee, anesthesia fees, operating room fee, and supplies fees. It may also include other services such as laser usage, or special post-operative garment needs. These fees are itemized and provided in a list at your consultation.

If your results would benefit from a revision, your cosmetic surgeon will revise your surgery at no extra charge. However, you will have to pay the expenses for anesthetic fees and operating room supplies incurred during the revision.

If you decide that you do not want to undergo plastic surgery, and you cancel after scheduling, you will be obligated to pay 10 percent of the plastic surgery fee in full. For cancellations that are less than a week prior to the scheduled plastic surgery date, the fee will be 100 percent, unless we can fill your scheduled time with another patient on short notice.

Contact Marietta Plastic Surgery to receive information about our fees or any additional information.

Will my surgery be private?

We know that for our Atlanta plastic surgery patients, privacy can be a matter of great concern. Whether your procedure is performed in our offices or at a hospital, your Marietta cosmetic surgeon and his staff will make every effort to keep information about your surgery private. At Marietta Plastic Surgery, we absolutely adhere to all legal privacy requirements, as well as make every effort possible to assure the privacy of all information, whether it has been submitted to this website or is contained in our patient files.

What are the benefits of having my surgery performed at your surgical facility at Marietta Plastic Surgery?

First and foremost, our surgical facility was designed specifically with our patients in mind. From years of experience, we know that our patients want to go into surgery in a facility specifically designed for them, and to wake up from their anesthesia in the most comfortable and attentive environment. In a hospital, your cosmetic surgery is completed in the same facility as heart surgeries, appendix removals, and any number of other procedures. At Marietta Plastic Surgery, our facilities are used and prepared exclusively for patients undergoing plastic surgery.

Moreover, if you schedule your surgery at our Atlanta-area plastic surgery center, your privacy is assured. A hospital can be a very public and open place. However, at our plastic surgery facilities, every room, from the waiting room to the surgical facilities to the recovery room, has been designed with your privacy as a priority.

Finally, Marietta Plastic Surgery's cosmetic surgical center is accredited both by the American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgical Facilities (AAAASF), a national association, and by the state of Georgia.

What does AAAASF mean?

AAAASF accreditation means that the safety and welfare of our plastic surgery patients is our first priority. We continually demonstrate that our cosmetic surgery center maintains the highest standards of care during the AAAASF's frequent inspections. We maintain a state-of-the-art facility, and our supplies and equipment are routinely inspected for safety and quality. We voluntarily submit to AAAASF inspections to assure that we continue to do everything in our power to make each patient's experience the best it can be.

Because we are an AAAAS-accredited facility, we are able to attract highly skilled and experienced staff. Because of their skill, the best cosmetic surgeons and nurses can choose where they will be employed. The most advanced, highly accredited centers draw better employees, and at Marietta Plastic Surgery, our nurses and cosmetic surgeons are the best that Georgia has to offer.

Wherever you elect to receive care, be sure that it has a system of inspections by an outside agency, such as AAAASF, that sets the standard of care at the highest national level.
