Although VASER LipoSelection® was designed to break up fat while leaving important tissue relatively intact, it is a surgical procedure and should not be entered into lightly. An important part of your experience will rest in the hands of the doctor you select and his or her practice.
While on the phone, you should be able to get a good "feel" for the practice – a good indicator of your comfort level throughout your patient experience. Do they share a practice philosophy, and is it patient-focused? Does your telephone interaction confirm this? Notice how the practice presents itself, and how they discuss and differentiate VASER LipoSelection®. If a practice is unable to differentiate the VASER LipoSelection® patient experience, consider contacting another practice. Ask to speak with previous VASER LipoSelection® patients to discuss their experience. If available, check out the practice website and view the before-and-after photographs. Investing your time in this advance research will help you more confidently enter practice doors. |
