Title: How long to wait after surgery before consulting Arnett/Gunson for revision?
Post by: tdawg on September 18, 2017, 04:16:14 AM
Im 6.5 weeks post op. Its pretty clear things werent done the way they were supposed to be and GJ agrees. Arnett and Gunson are probably out of the cards for quite some time given my situation. That being said I would like to consult with them next time I can(how long of a wait is it usually? A couple of months?), to see what they say. I just dont want to be told(by them/their office) to wait for the swelling to go down all the way or something like that. Also without insurance how much is their consultation fee?

It's about 6 months, so you can schedule a consultation immediately since Gunson probably won't be available until next year. If you don't like your face at one month post-op, you're never going to like it.

Edit: price removed
