Your Surgical Consultation

The consultation is where surgery begins.

An unhurried conversation with your surgeon — available virtual or in Beverly Hills.

Dr. Truesdale believes a thorough, honest consultation is the cornerstone of the surgical process. A patient who understands exactly what their goals are, what is going to happen, has had every question answered honestly, and knows what recovery will actually feel like — enters the experience as a partner rather than a passenger.

Every consultation at this practice is conducted personally by Dr. Truesdale. Not a patient coordinator. Not a nurse practitioner reviewing photographs. Dr. Truesdale personally — conducting the facial analysis, meeting with the patient, answering every question directly, and providing his honest assessment of how to best achieve your goals.

We consider this commitment non-negotiable — because the relationship built in the consultation room is the foundation on which safe, satisfying surgery is performed.

“Dr. Truesdale took the time to really listen to my concerns and goals. I never felt rushed or pressured. He explained all my options in a clear, honest, and thoughtful way, making sure I understood the procedures, outcomes, and recovery process. His expertise and calm demeanor instantly built my trust.”

Before Your Visit

Preparing for your consultation

For best results, arrive with minimal or no makeup — this allows Dr. Truesdale to accurately assess your skin quality, tissue laxity, and underlying anatomy.
Send recent photos of yourself, plus a photo showing your goal result, to your patient care coordinator (PCC) ahead of your visit so the team can review them in advance. See the five views we need →
Respond to any correspondence or check-in procedures from the office — intake forms, scheduling confirmations, and pre-visit questionnaires.
Bring something to take notes with, if that will help you — a notebook, your phone, or a trusted person who can take notes alongside you.
Bring your questions. Write down everything you want to know before your appointment. Dr. Truesdale personally answers every question — no topic is off-limits, no question too detailed or too simple.
Consider a support person. Many patients find it helpful to bring a trusted friend or family member to help remember information and provide perspective.

“I went in for a consultation. The office and staff were very nice. Dr. Truesdale has a great bedside manner and was very pleasant. He explained everything in a way that was well understood and he answered all my questions. I was very satisfied with Maria, the patient coordinator — she is very knowledgeable. I plan on having my procedure done soon.”

Speak with the personal patient care coordinator (PCC) assigned to your case — she becomes your direct contact throughout the journey. Share your goals, send any photos that help, and receive your first information on procedures, pricing, and timelines. Your PCC will also outline what to bring to your visit and confirm the appointment.

03

Arrive for Your Consultation

For in-person consultations, arrive at 150 S. Rodeo Drive, Suite 360, Beverly Hills. Out-of-town patients meet with Dr. Truesdale virtually. Either way, our team collects your basic health history and intake paperwork beforehand. Arrive with minimal or no makeup so Dr. Truesdale can accurately assess your skin quality, tissue laxity, and underlying anatomy.

04

Meet Dr. Truesdale to Discuss Your Goals and Surgical Possibilities

Dr. Truesdale personally examines your face — assessing skin quality, tissue anatomy, bone structure, and the specific concerns you have raised. This time is one-on-one with the surgeon — never delegated.

05

Discuss Your Plan, Pricing & Timeline

A thorough conversation about the recommended approach, alternatives, realistic outcomes, recovery timeline, and what surgery cannot achieve. Every question is answered before you leave. Your PCC reviews surgical pricing, scheduling, and pre-operative requirements with you in the same visit.

06

Schedule Your Procedure

If and when you decide to proceed, your PCC schedules your procedure date and walks you through every pre-operative requirement.

Discreet, Concierge Care

Absolute confidentiality.

Some patients require absolute discretion. We accommodate after-hours consultations, private entrances, NDAs on request, and a separate scheduling channel for public-figure patients.

Contact our practice manager directly at contact@doctortruesdale.com for a private intake.

“What an awesome staff — super friendly, so warm and kind! When I met Dr. Truesdale, he was just like how he is on his YouTube videos: genuinely caring, knowledgeable, and very confident in his advice and his abilities to deliver. He made great recommendations for the very best outcomes and worked with his staff to make it financially affordable for me. I’m so grateful I held off and found the gifted and experienced Dr. Truesdale — an artist true to his craft of transformation.”
