YOUR Treatment

Finding Your Best Self

Perhaps you've never been happy with the shape of your nose. Or you're concerned that your "laugh lines" are starting to deepen, making you look older than your years. Maybe your skin isn't as smooth or as clear as you would like it to be. There are more appearance-enhancing alternatives today than ever before. New techniques and procedures continually expand the possibilities for reducing signs of aging, correcting cosmetic problems associated with trauma or illness, and generally optimizing your looks. Whether your goal is looking your best for continued career advancement or the sheer pleasure of looking better when you see yourself in the mirror each morning, the right change can make a compelling difference.

Or maybe you have some ear, nose or throat concerns such as a lump in your throat, nasal congestion, a persistent cough or hoarseness. Or maybe you're concerned with the look of a skin lesion and want it evaluated. Whether your reason for coming to our office is medical or cosmetic, we strive to improve your quality of life.

The First Step: the Consultation

The exciting process of developing a treatment plan begins with your personal consultation. This initial meeting with Dr. Moravec will be an unhurried, relaxed discussion of your needs, your health history, your hopes and concerns. Dr. Moravec will conduct a thorough facial exam and analysis, which may include both still photos and video imaging of your face to help you envision how certain changes might affect your appearance. The consultation is about you. Dr. Moravec will address any of your questions including how long certain procedures take, what anesthesia will be used, how long recuperation should take, and how your specific anatomy, medical condition and skin may affect results. Your clear understanding of the procedure and the establishment of shared realistic expectations are our highest priorities. You'll receive complete cost information and assistance with insurance issues. We understand the realities of your budget. We may be able to suggest a specific procedure or treatment approach accomplished in steps in order to take your finances into consideration.

Computer Imaging

To help you visualize possible changes computer imaging may be used during your consultation.  During this process your photo is computerized into two images. As you discuss needs and concerns, Dr. Moravec designs one of the images to reflect potential alternatives for you to compare with your current appearance.

Computer imaging lets you glimpse a hypothetical outcome that may help with decisions. Since each procedure actually depends on how the individual responds and heals, it is a tool that can suggest rather than predict precise results.  Your facial analysis with Dr. Moravec will establish a framework for the kind of change you can anticipate within boundaries that are realistic.
