We value all of your unique traits—what makes you, you—and our treatment reflects just that. The success of our practice is dependent on our ability to build a foundation of trust with our patients, which we accomplish by treating every person as an individual.

CONSULTATIONS

We all know the power of a first impression…

Your consultation is a crucial moment for you and for team Chao. It gives us the chance to get to know each other and discuss which specific procedures would provide the best results for your unique goals, as well as go over the ins and outs of our practice and our team’s approach to treatment. After we’ve covered all your questions, we’ll decide what comes next—together.
