Fly in Program
For those patients who do not live in the Los Angeles area but would still like to benefit from the cosmetic surgery expertise of Dr. Payman Simoni, we are happy to accommodate visitors.
Patients travel from across the country and from around the world to consult with Dr. Simoni on his world-class surgical and non-surgical procedures. His artistic flair and superior surgical skills offer a unique service to those seeking facial expertise that is the gold standard in patient results and care.
There are many benefits and reasons why a client would seek a consultation from Dr. Simoni:
- They would like to benefit from Dr. Simoni’s signature procedures such as the Designer Rhinoplasty and the Simoni Lift.
- They do not have a cosmetic surgeon of Dr. Simoni’s caliber in their geographic region.
- Patients would like to take a “mini vacation” to the most famous zip code in the world–90210–and receive red carpet cosmetic procedures, all in one trip.
- Dr. Simoni’s minimally invasive and gentle approach to cosmetic surgery offers faster recovery times, less bruising and makes it possible for patients to leave their hotel room as early as the next day after their procedures.
The Process
Step 1: virtual consultation
If you do not live near Beverly Hills or Los Angeles and would like to work with Dr. Simoni, the first step is to request an online consultation by calling Dr. Simoni’s office at (310) 360-1360. Our cosmetic coordinator will go over the details of the online consultation process, including how you should send photos to Dr. Simoni for review and evaluation.
Step 2: scheduling
Once you and Dr. Simoni have agreed on the procedures that would best suit your needs and Dr. Simoni has determined you are a good surgical candidate, our patient coordinator will help you schedule your procedure and will go over the fees with you. She will be able to suggest post-operative care accommodations and hotels nearby to ensure you are comfortable and taken care of.
Step 3: preparation
Once you have planned and scheduled your procedure, there are several aspects that must be addressed in preparation for your visit to Los Angeles. First, if you have any medical issues or if you are over the age of 40, it may be required that you to get several routine blood tests and medical clearance from a doctor to ensure you are strong enough and healthy enough to undergo cosmetic surgery. Standard medications for post-surgical recovery will be prescribed and these should be picked up at least one day before surgery. Time permitting, it may be easiest to fill your prescriptions in Los Angeles once you arrive. This should be worked into your overall schedule in advance. Even if you have your prescription filled prior to arrival, you will need to arrive at least one full day prior to your schedule procedure. Typically, patients need at least a week of recovery time before they return to normal activities and before they return home. The exact time recommended for your stay depends on how far away you live from Los Angeles and the procedures you are undergoing. Recovery time should be discussed with Dr. Simoni and your patient care coordinator.
Step 4: recovery & accommodation
As mentioned above, it is customary for patients who fly in to Los Angeles for procedures with Dr. Simoni to stay in Los Angeles for 7 to 10 days after surgery. If you will need additional help after your surgery, we can arrange for a nurse to assist you in your hotel room or through a recovery center.
