Pre & Post-Op Instructions

Thank you for choosing The Aesthetic Centers and our Board-Certified Plastic Surgeons for your surgeries. In preparation for your surgery, we have compiled all the information that you need before, during, and after your procedure on one page. Please read, print, or download these instructions to prepare and guide you through this process. Please follow all the steps on this page.

1.Preparing For Surgery

1. Please print the attached History and Physical Form and give to your medical provider to complete during your clearance appointment. Please schedule this appointment ASAP for about 4 weeks before your surgery- no earlier as the physical exam and lab testing must be completed within 30 days prior to your surgery date per state law. The medical exam should clearly state that you are medically stable and cleared for surgery.

2. If your primary care physician is unable to perform your History and Physical in time, you may please call our referral physician’s office, Dr. Reza Allamehzadeh’s office at 949-581-2002 to schedule your pre-operative tests and clearance.

3. Laboratory tests should be performed within (30) thirty days of surgery.

4. If you are over 40 years of age, an EKG is required by the surgical facility and should be performed within thirty (30) days of surgery.

5. If you are over 50 years of age, a chest x-ray is required by the surgical facility and should be performed within thirty (30) days of surgery.

6. If you are female, a mammogram is required before any type of breast procedure. Please schedule this appointment ASAP. We will accept a mammogram that is within one calendar year of your surgery date.

Please make sure that all your documents are returned/faxed to our office within thirty (30) days prior to surgery.
