Why Schedule a Consultation with Our Board-Certified Surgeons?
A private consultation is the essential first step in your plastic surgery process. This meeting is an educational and open conversation, not a sales presentation. It provides you with the dedicated time to speak directly with our board-certified surgeons, who will listen to your concerns and provide honest, professional guidance based on years of specialized training.
What to Expect During Your Consultation
We design our consultations to be calm, welcoming, and informative. Our goal is for you to leave with a clear understanding of your options. The appointment is a comprehensive, three-step process.
Your Initial Conversation
You will first have an in-depth, private discussion with your surgeon. This is your time to share your concerns, medical history, and the specific outcomes you hope to achieve. We prioritize a listening-first approach to fully understand your perspective.
Comprehensive Evaluation
Next, Dr. Bivik Shah or Dr. Alexandre Prassinos will conduct a focused evaluation of the areas you wish to address. This professional assessment is necessary to determine the most effective and appropriate procedures for your specific anatomy and personalized care goals.
Your Personalized Treatment Plan
Your surgeon will explain your recommended treatment plan based on your goals and evaluation. They will review all suitable options, discuss the results you can realistically expect, and provide answers to your questions about the procedure, recovery, and timing.

Frequently Asked Questions About
Plastic Surgery Consultations
Here are answers to a few common questions patients ask before their first visit.
How much does a plastic surgery consultation cost?
Your plastic surgery consultation at the Columbus Institute of Plastic Surgery is completely free. We believe this first meeting should be focused on gathering information and understanding your options without any financial obligation.
What questions should I ask during my consultation?
We encourage you to ask any questions you may have. Many patients find it helpful to ask about the surgeon's board certification, request to see before-and-after photos of similar patients, and discuss the details of the recovery process.
How should I prepare for my consultation?
Thinking clearly about your goals and what you wish to change is the best preparation. We also suggest writing down your questions and being prepared to discuss your medical history, which helps our surgeons provide the safest recommendations.
Can I discuss multiple procedures during one consultation?
Absolutely. Your consultation is the perfect time to discuss all your areas of concern. Our surgeons can then develop a comprehensive plan that may combine female procedures or male procedures to achieve a more harmonious result, often with a single recovery period.
