How Dr. Kim conducts anti-aging surgical consultations and what patients should prepare.
Dr. Kim's consultations are unhurried — typically 45–60 minutes for a first visit. He begins with a complete facial assessment, discussing what has changed and what would meaningfully address it. No surgical recommendations are made before this assessment is complete.
Your goals and expectations. Your timeline. Any previous aesthetic procedures. Your general health and medications. Whether you have had anaesthesia before and any reactions.
Photographs from when you were happy with how you looked (for reference). A written list of your concerns and questions. Any previous medical records relevant to surgery.
SHES does not encourage same-day surgical decisions. Most patients have at least one consultation, receive the assessment and quotation in writing, and take time to consider before committing. A second consultation is always available.
