At North Dallas Plastic Surgery (NDPS), we have been asked why there are no “before and after photographs” on our website – or if they are there then where are they hidden?
We have always resisted the marketing pressure of featuring a gallery of before and after pictures. While we remain very proud of the results of surgery for our patients, we have strong ethical reservations featuring such an online gallery.
Dr. Todd A. Pollock believes photos can be manipulated to show different degrees of changes – some changes may not even be due to the skill of the cosmetic surgeon but due to the work of a graphic artist to alter the photograph after it’s taken. He will show photos to potential patients when they arrive at our practice for a personal consultation.
Another problem with photographs – they are very two dimensional. What looks good online may feel too firm or abnormal to the patient after surgery.
Then, if you’re ready for your consultation with our surgeon himself (and not with just his staff) please Contact Us » – or call us at 214.363.2575 – and schedule your appointment. You’ll get all your questions answered when you talk with Dr. Pollock.
