Out-Of-Town Patients

Information for Our Visiting Patients

Patients frequently travel from out of state for a procedure with Dr. Crofts. In order to make the process convenient and easy, we need a few items from you before we start. Please be advised that Dr. Crofts requires you to stop smoking several weeks prior to surgery. In addition, usage of any aspirin product must be discontinued 2 weeks before surgery

Out of town patients must fly in at least 24 hours prior to surgery to reduce the risk of blood clots. Dr. Crofts recommends patient stay for 1 week post-surgery for most procedures and 2 weeks for tummy tuck and lower body lift procedures.

1. Online Consultation Information

Please call the office to schedule an online consultation, we will collect your contact information and send you instructions to activate your patient portal, download our AP patient app and fill out your medical history. You will receive a text from us which will instruct you to upload your photos. You will also text a few sentences of what is bothering you and what you want changed with surgery. Once we receive all this information, we will present it to Dr. Crofts for his surgical recommendations. We will email you a quote and set up a time to call you and review the quote and surgery.

2. Interest

Please include a description of what is bothering you and what you would like to achieve through surgery. Please be as specific as possible.

3. Pictures

Please have someone else take your photos or use a tripod with a timer. Self-taken photos with the camera in your hand can distort the images and will not be sufficient in determining what procedure is recommended.

4. Deposit

Aesthetica requires a 10 percent deposit to reserve a surgery date.

5. Financing

For financing information please visit our financing page.

6. Lodging

Listed below are the hotels and names of some hotels who may have a negotiated special rate for our patients. Each is conveniently located near the surgery center or our office. We ask you to plan on staying at least a week postoperatively, depending on the procedure.

7. Scheduling

For your safety, no surgery will be scheduled without pictures, completed paperwork and a 10% deposit of your surgery quote.
