Your comfort matters. Here are answers to questions many of our patients ask
Most cosmetic and reconstructive procedures are performed under anesthesia, so you won’t feel pain during surgery. Some discomfort is expected during recovery, but it is usually well-managed with prescribed pain medication and post-operative care. Dr. Sannia ensures all patients are closely monitored for a comfortable and smooth healing process.
The cost varies depending on the procedure, complexity, and whether it’s cosmetic or reconstructive. Cosmetic procedures are usually self-funded, while reconstructive surgeries may be partially or fully covered by insurance. A detailed estimate will be provided during your consultation, along with available payment plans if needed.
Recovery time depends on the type of procedure:
Minimally invasive treatments (e.g., Botox, fillers): Little to no downtime
Facial procedures (e.g., rhinoplasty, facelift): 7–14 days of recovery
Body surgeries (e.g., liposuction, tummy tuck): 2–4 weeks
Reconstructive surgeries: Vary based on complexity
Dr. Sannia will guide you on how soon you can return to daily activities or work during your personalized recovery plan

Insurance typically does not cover cosmetic surgeries done for aesthetic purposes. However, reconstructive procedures—such as post-cancer breast reconstruction, trauma repair, or congenital defect correction—are often covered. During consultation, our team will help you understand your insurance eligibility and guide you through the paperwork if applicable.
