Virtual Consultations at Reddy Aesthetics
What is a Virtual Consult
A virtual consult is an evaluation conducted to advise you on options for cosmetic surgery which may be performed remotely ie. from the comfort of your home. At the present time, virtual consults are offered solely for the purpose of cosmetic surgery. The virtual consult will provide you with 3-D images on certain procedure which you may access through the Crisalix client portal and view from your home.
The 3-D images serve to provide you and your surgeon with an idea of what your results will look like. They are extremely useful in planning breast procedures and are especially useful in selection of implant size or for visualizing incisions for mastopexy.
A virtual consult is not a substitute for the in-office consult — which is necessary should you choose to proceed with a cosmetic procedure.
How do I Arrange a Virtual Consult?
It’s easy!
First contact our office by either calling 404-481-5089 or emailing us at [email protected].
The first step is to provide us with demographic information including a personal or family history of any medical conditions of the breast. We will also need your height, weight, and current bra size as well as your goal bra size.
Next, you will need to provide us with three pictures which may be emailed to us. Please see the reference pictures below for the correct poses.
Finally, you will need to provide a single measurement which is the distance between the nipples and around the waist measured in centimeters.
After we receive the above information, we will generate 3-D images which represent your possible results.
After you have had a chance to review the images through the secure Crisalix patient portal, a virtual consult with Dr. Reddy will be arranged via Skype.
Tips on Photography
A camera phone may be used.
It is best to shoot the images in bright ambient lighting and without a flash against a light background.
Please do not wear jewelry such as necklaces when taking the pictures as these may interfere with the 3-D reconstructions.
What Happens After a Virtual Consult
After completing the virtual consult, we will schedule an in person consult. It is necessary that you undergo a physical exam prior to any cosmetic procedure.
You may then schedule your procedure through our office at one of the accredited surgical centers where Dr. Reddy operates.
