1. Which surgical advancement are you most excited about right now?

   We are particularly enthusiastic about treatments that stimulate collagen production, such as lasers and radio frequency, and looking ahead, we are eager to explore the potential of stem cells in scar modulation to enhance surgical outcomes.

2. What do you love most about your profession?

   The thanks we receive from patients and even their loved ones.

3. How do you manage patient expectations?

   In our practice, honesty is key in aligning patient expectations and ensuring appropriate recommendations. If a patient's expectations exceed what we can realistically deliver, we make it clear to them. Similarly, if we believe a patient doesn't genuinely require a procedure they're considering, we provide honest feedback. For instance, if a patient seeks a facelift surgery prematurely, we will advise against it.
