First of its Kind Program Rewards Cosmetic Surgery Patients for Healthier Lifestyles
The "Reveal a Better You" program offers financial rewards for quitting smoking and losing weight prior to face lift surgery
Worcester, MA (PRWEB) June 26, 2009 -- Today, most people are aware of the many health risks associated with cigarette smoking and obesity. Yet many prospective cosmetic surgery patients are shocked to hear just how dangerous these factors can be when going under the knife.
Smokers and overweight patients who undergo facial plastic surgery are much more likely to suffer serious complications that can result in scarring, delayed healing, permanent tissue damage and even death. Due to these risks, many surgeons refuse to operate on active smokers and encourage those who are significantly above their ideal body weight to slim down prior to treatment. Boston area facial cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Frank Fechner (www.drfechner.com) is one such surgeon, though his commitment to patient health runs deeper than most. After counseling numerous patients on the risks associated with smoking and obesity, Fechner launched the Reveal a Better You program in early 2009. The program is designed to reward and support patients as they work to stop smoking and or lose weight. Successful completion of the Reveal a Better You program results in as much as a 30 percent discount on Dr. Fechner's surgical fees along with follow up and support along the way. "As a physician, the safety and success of patients in my care is my first priority, "said Fechner. "But as we know the benefits of a healthy lifestyle go far beyond a successful surgery and the Reveal a Better You program challenges patients to join me in making a long term investment in their overall health." Once enrolled in the Reveal a Better You program patients return regularly to Fechner's office to assess their progress and receive support. Patients who are working to stop smoking undergo several urine tests prior to their surgery and those who are trying to achieve a healthy body weight receive regular weigh-ins. Once their goal is met, the patients have a pre-surgical consultation with Fechner and ultimately schedule their procedure. The Reveal a Better You program has attracted patients from throughout New England and several patients have already successfully completed the program and undergone their cosmetic procedures.
