Personalized Guidance—Now Online
At Aesthetic Plastic Surgery in Eugene, we are committed to providing every patient with informative, compassionate, and personalized care. As technology continues to evolve, so does our ability to connect with you wherever you are—even before you step foot in our office.
One of the most convenient ways we support new and prospective patients is through digital consultations and secure email correspondence. Whether you’re considering a cosmetic procedure or simply exploring your options, our team is here to answer your questions, address concerns, and help you feel confident in your choices.
Why Virtual Consultations Are Gaining Popularity
The internet has empowered millions of people to research cosmetic procedures, read reviews, and even view before-and-after photos from the comfort of their home. Today’s patients are more informed—and more tech-savvy—than ever before.
As CNN recently reported, many plastic surgeons across the country have begun offering “virtual consultations” using secure video platforms such as:
-
Zoom
-
FaceTime
-
Skype
-
Google Meet
These tools allow for real-time, face-to-face communication that feels both personal and professional. One East Coast surgeon even noted that up to 15% of his patients now opt for remote consultations.
Benefits of Virtual Cosmetic Surgery Consultations
Virtual consultations offer a wide range of benefits for both patients and providers, including:
1. Convenience and Time Savings
No need to take time off work or travel—simply join from your home or office.
2. Privacy and Comfort
Ask sensitive questions from a private setting that feels safe and relaxed.
3. Accessibility for Out-of-Town Patients
If you live outside the Eugene area but are considering plastic surgery with Dr. Lee B. Daniel, a virtual consultation allows you to connect before scheduling an in-person appointment.
4. Pre-Consultation Screening
A digital consult is a great way to determine if you’re a candidate for a specific procedure before committing to an in-office visit.
How It Works at Aesthetic Plastic Surgery
While we believe nothing can fully replace the value of a one-on-one consultation in person, we understand that early education and trust-building are essential parts of the decision-making process.
You can begin by contacting our office via email or phone to ask questions about:
-
Breast augmentation
-
Facial rejuvenation
-
Body contouring
-
Injectables and non-surgical treatments
From there, we can arrange for a phone call, email exchange, or even a live video consultation, depending on your preferences and the nature of your inquiry.
Confidentiality and Professionalism Are Always Our Priority
When you reach out to us, rest assured your information and correspondence will be handled with the utmost care. At Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, privacy and professionalism are core values, and we take every measure to maintain confidentiality.
Our patient coordinator will work closely with you to:
-
Schedule a time that fits your availability
-
Review your goals and background
-
Share details about procedures, recovery, and expectations
-
Recommend next steps, including potential in-office consultation
A Growing Trend in Global Cosmetic Surgery
Virtual consultations aren’t just popular in the U.S.—they’re transforming the global aesthetic industry. Surgeons in other countries now use virtual platforms to speak with international patients, provide second opinions, and even schedule procedures as part of “medical tourism” packages.
Michael Boeckle, a medical travel coordinator, shared with reporters that most patients don’t choose a surgeon based on cost alone. Instead, they choose based on how confident and informed they feel after initial conversations—often conducted digitally.
That same mindset applies here in Eugene. We want every person who contacts us to feel empowered and informed, whether they choose to move forward or not.
