Los Angeles Torrance Plastic Surgery Computer Imaging

Muir Computer Imaging is a very exciting part of our consultation process, and what it involves is actually taking the patient’s picture, altering it on the computer, and then having the patient preview that anticipated outcome. And then it gives an opportunity for us to communicate, see if the patient likes that kind of outcome, see if they accept the change, and then ultimately they have a better idea as to whether or not they want to go through with this surgery.

Cosmetic Plastic Surgery Los Angeles Beverly Hills Area Patient Consultations

The consultations are so much fun. I mean it’s great to have new people come in here, and my goal is to educate them, also to make them very comfortable, because many of them have a great fear about coming in to see a plastic surgeon. And so the consultation process involves of course meeting my staff and then having their photographs taken, they’re then interviewed by me and I am a real doctor during the consultation, I mean I actually take history, I do an examination, we make diagnoses as to what the problem areas that they’re concerned about, and then we make a plan and this plan may contain various options, there’s not one thing always that’s right for the person, so they have to know what their options are and then of course what the consequences of each of those options are in terms of risks and benefits, recovery time, and then of course their final outcome. And the ultimate is that each patient that considers the procedure have a happy outcome, that’s the bottom line.

Skin Care Laser Hair Removal Los Angeles Torrance SpaBella

Spabella I think is unique because it completes what I call the circle of beauty which is that a patient comes in and they have concerns about their image, and they might not be ready to go right to the operating room. So we have all of the services here to help them prepare to get ready. Also there’s many patients nowadays that don’t even want to think about the knife, they want to actually just help preserve what they have, they want a natural look. So we have all of the services here to help them take care of their skin and make sure it looks their best in an very natural way and when they’re ready for surgery we’re also here so we have a complete circle of services.

Cosmetic Plastic Surgery Los Angeles Torrance Beverly Hills Area

My staff are vital to my practice. I could not survive without them. And what I learned in developing my practice, that you can develop a great physical space, have a beautiful Bella environment, however if you don’t have the personnel that can portray your philosophies then you won’t be successful. And I’ve been very fortunate over the years to have acquired a highly trained and professional staff that can be me at all times.
My name is Roberta Pulin and I work for Dr. Petti in the capacity of surgery coordinator. I prepare the patients for surgery, make sure they get all of their medical tests done that they need, and that their surgery may be performed in a safe way, and answer any questions that they have, just work with them very closely once they’ve scheduled surgery.
Well I’m Sandra Turner, I’m one of Dr. Petti’s patient coordinators, I also do massage therapy here along with consult with patients and take care of Dr. Petti and her practice.
Hi I’m Lynette and I’m Dr. Petti’s director of nursing. I worked with Dr. Petti for over the past 10 years. I’m the director of this surgery center plus I work with Dr. Petti when she’s doing treatments, seeing her post op patients with her along with some other nurses in our practice, and doing treatments under her guidance for her patients and surgery.
I think the most rewarding part about working here is that Dr. Petti is so good at what she does, it’s actually very easy to work here. I can say to a patient how good she is and I don’t say that because I work here, I work here because I can say that.

Los Angeles Torrance Aesthetic Accents Cosmetic and Laser Surgery Center

A woman’s artistic touch I think is special because we have a special sensitivity and we love detail. I think I’m a natural at cosmetic surgery and it was easy for me to go into this field considering that my mother was a hairdresser and I grew up with a beauty shop in my home, so it’s natural for me to be in the beauty industry.
