Patient Safety In Santa Barbara, CA
Montecito Plastic Surgery’s Commitment to Patient Safety
Over the last decade or two, interest in plastic surgery has grown exponentially. While we think that’s a great thing, it has also led to an increase in doctors performing these complex procedures without the requisite training or credentials. At Montecito Plastic Surgery, we know that choosing a surgeon with the right knowledge and expertise is essential to your safety. A board-certified plastic surgeon means that your procedure will be performed by a trained professional in a clean, safe environment, and you should expect nothing less when it comes to your health and well-being.
That’s why Dr. Adam Lowenstein is double board-certified and an active member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), keeping up with the latest research, techniques and advances in the field. Combined with an overlying concept of “do the right thing,” his commitment to excellence comes into sharp focus when considering our most important role of keeping our patients safe. These aspects set Dr. Lowenstein and his team at Montecito Plastic Surgery apart from the rest.
An Unparalleled Conservative Approach
We want to do everything we can to take chance out of the equation, so Dr. Lowenstein has an unparalleled conservative nature when it comes to plastic surgery to ensure your health and safety. This means he takes great care to provide the best possible results while minimizing side effects or complications. At Montecito Plastic Surgery, it also means that patients with colds, symptoms of COVID-19 or even the flu have their interactions with our office and/or surgery center delayed to reduce the risk of transmission.
We know the majority of plastic and aesthetic surgeries are elective, and even though postponing a procedure can cause inconvenience or financial hardship to the practice, Dr. Lowenstein feels strongly that patient safety is much more important. We would rather do the right thing and reschedule an appointment to a time where the risk to both patients and staff is minimal. This is one reason why our complication rates consistently rank among the lowest in the country — the extra care and precautions we take can have a big impact on the outcome of your procedure.
Private AAAASF-Certified Surgery Center
No other plastic surgeon in the Santa Barbara area works in their own personal surgery center. Dr. Lowenstein’s AAAASF-certified surgical facility is not shared with any other providers, giving patients unmatched privacy and comfort. In addition, our accreditation status means that Montecito Plastic Surgery has surpassed rigorous standards for patient care and safety, so you’ll know that your operation is being performed in a clean, sterile environment with an experienced support staff.
Not only does Dr. Lowenstein have total control of the staffing, supplies, and meticulous cleaning and sterilization techniques used in our surgery center, he also ensures that you’re never exposed to other patients during the pre-operative, surgical or post-operative aspects of your experience. With the only single-patient recovery room in the region, you’ll be able to begin the healing process in a setting that’s reminiscent of a quiet retreat.
When choosing a plastic surgeon, experience is important. Ethics and standards are important. Consistently excellent results are important. But most of all, your safety is important. Dr. Lowenstein refuses to compromise on any of these principles to ensure a truly exceptional plastic surgery experience that prioritizes your health and well-being.
