What to expect at your cosmetic surgery patient consultation

Getting to know Dr. Pancholi and our staff is the first step toward getting a look you love.

Dr. Pancholi and his staff want you to be fully informed throughout your cosmetic surgery experience. We’ve learned that an informed patient is more likely to love their results, because they know what to tell us, what to expect, and what to ask Dr. Pancholi to get the outcome they are looking for. This process starts as soon as you call or contact us online to schedule your consultation with Dr. Pancholi.

I had 3 different consultations and this one was by far the best one. He was very thorough and very knowledgeable on what my needs were. The staff were very welcoming and assisted me through it all… I would recommend Dr. Pancholi to anyone who is looking to do any cosmetic surgery.

Preparing for your consultation

The first step is deciding when and how you will meet with Dr. Pancholi and our staff. Most patients come into our office for an in-person consultation, as this offers the most in-depth experience and allows you to see our facility and meet more of our staff members. However, we also can and do conduct many consultations over the phone. Whichever method you choose, it’s best to call as soon as you have made a decision to meet with Dr. Pancholi. Because he wants to allow plenty of time to meet with each patient, appointment slots are limited, and his schedule fills up quickly.

Trying on Breast Implants

If you are considering Las Vegas breast augmentation, breast revision, or another procedure with breast implants, your consultation may include a preliminary breast implant sizing session. During this time, you will get to touch and hold a variety of saline, silicone gel, and silicone gummy bear implants to get to know how each different option feels. You will also get to try on several implant options wearing a special bra to see the effects that different shapes and sizes have on your proportions.
