01
Schedule a private consultation
Contact the practice or use the consultation request form below. Select the office that works best for you and share a brief description of what you would like to discuss.
Your consultation
A thoughtful first step toward your goals.
Your consultation is a private conversation about what you hope to change, what is medically appropriate, and what you can realistically expect. It is time to ask questions, understand your options, and make an informed decision without pressure.
What to expect
From first conversation to an informed decision.
Every recommendation begins with your goals, health history, and an in-person evaluation. The consultation is designed to give you clear information—not to rush your decision.
02
Discuss your goals and concerns
During your appointment, you can speak candidly with Dr. Ip about the changes you are considering, your expectations, and the questions that matter most to you.
03
Review an individualized plan
When appropriate, Dr. Ip will perform an examination and explain potential options, limitations, preparation, recovery considerations, and possible risks and complications.
04
Decide without pressure
You will have the information needed to consider your options. If you choose to proceed, the practice can explain fees, scheduling, and the required pre-surgical steps.
Continuity of care
Care continues after the procedure.
Follow-up care is an important part of the surgical process. Post-operative visits give Dr. Ip and the practice team an opportunity to monitor healing, answer questions, and provide guidance for each stage of recovery. Your specific follow-up schedule will depend on your procedure and individual needs.
Before your visit
Consultation questions, answered.
What should I bring to my plastic surgery consultation?
Bring a current medication list, relevant medical and surgical history, and a written list of questions. Reference photos may help communicate your preferences, but they do not guarantee a particular result.
What happens during the consultation?
You will discuss your goals, health history, concerns, and expectations with Dr. Ip. Depending on the procedure, the visit may include an examination and a review of appropriate options, limitations, recovery, and potential risks.
Will I receive exact pricing at my consultation?
Procedure fees can vary with the treatment plan, anesthesia, facility needs, and other factors. The practice can review the fees that apply to your individualized plan after the appropriate evaluation.
Do I have to schedule surgery at the consultation?
No. The consultation is an opportunity to gather information and decide whether a procedure and care plan feel right for you. You may take time to consider your options before scheduling.
Can I request a specific office location?
Yes. The practice serves patients through Newport Beach, Beverly Hills, and New York City. Choose your preferred office in the consultation request form, and the team can follow up about availability.
