your options?

A consultation with Dr. Buchanan is the first step toward understanding what's possible. It's a conversation, not a commitment — and it's entirely yours to have.

What patients
often ask

Good candidates are generally in good health, have realistic expectations, and are seeking surgery to improve their own confidence — not to meet someone else's standards. During your consultation, Dr. Buchanan will review your medical history, discuss your goals, and let you know honestly whether a procedure is right for you.

Surgeries are performed at an accredited surgical facility. Patient safety is the highest priority, and the facility meets all state and federal standards for surgical care. Details about the specific facility will be discussed during your consultation.

Your consultation is a private, unhurried conversation. Dr. Buchanan will listen to your goals, examine your anatomy, explain your options, and answer your questions. There is no pressure to decide on the spot — this is your time to learn and feel confident in your choice.
