Surgeons should provide before-and-after photos relevant to the patient's specific anatomy and discuss general and personal complication rates for procedures.

“So, to everything I do, I can show them my before and afters. I can tell them this is um and I show them multiple, for example, a facelift. I'll show them different faces because everyone has a different shaped face. You can't do the same get the same result depending on their anatomy. So, I'll show them different things. I'll say, "Now, this one looks more like your neck and your jawline. This is kind of the result you can hope to get." And I tell them the complications in my hands. I tell them the overall complications, but I tell them in my hands, this is what I see.”
