Before your visit
Common questions about your consultation.
Here are answers to the most common questions we receive. If you don’t see what you’re looking for, we’re happy to help — just reach out.
How much does a consultation cost?
Consultations are $100, credited toward surgery if you move forward. You can meet in person in Scottsdale or virtually.
How much does plastic surgery cost?
The cost depends on the procedure, anesthesia, the facility and your follow-up care. After your consultation you’ll receive a written estimate that lists what it includes.
Does insurance cover any of these procedures?
Aesthetic surgery is generally not covered. Some reconstructive procedures, such as breast reconstruction after mastectomy and medically necessary breast reduction, may be.
Do I need to know which procedure I want?
No. Start with what you’d like to change or what’s concerning you, and Dr. Movtchan will walk you through the options.
What is recovery like?
It depends on the procedure and on you. Each procedure page covers what to plan for, and you’ll receive instructions written for your surgery.
