Photographs are an important part of your patient record and also serve as a reference throughout the course of your care. You will sign a specific consent for photographs that allows you to elect whether those photographs remain a fully private part of your patient record, or whether you will allow Dr. Hovsepian to use these for educational and research purposes. If you are coming for a facial consultation, please keep makeup to a minimum so Dr. Hovsepian can better evaluate your natural appearance both before and after surgery.
