Dr. Mele believes the first step of the treatment process is one of the most important, as it will lay the foundation for virtually everything that comes after. During your initial consultation with Dr. Mele, he will have a friendly conversation with you about your concerns and goals. He will conduct an examination of the areas you would like to address, review your medical history, and thoroughly answer all of your questions. Once you and Dr. Mele have explored the treatment options that may be of benefit, he will make a recommendation on the procedure that is most ideal for your specific needs. Should you decide to move forward, Dr. Mele will develop a treatment plan that is fully customized to your unique anatomical characteristics and ultimate enhancement goals. Once the treatment plan is designed, a member of Dr. Mele’s team will provide a cost estimate for the procedure that includes all associated expenses and answer any questions you may have about our extensive selection of payment options. We will also be happy to collaborate with you on the time and date of treatment that will be most convenient for your schedule. Dr. Mele encourages you to be completely open with him about your concerns and expectations. After all, the consultation is designed to be a safe space for you to communicate your goals and have all of your questions answered while evaluating your confidence and trust in your plastic surgeon.
