What You Can Expect
Dr. Zoumalan is a board-certified Oculoplastic surgeon that specializes in eyelid surgery. At his Beverly Hills practice, he often treats out of town patients. Dr. Zoumalan pays particular attention to ethnic variations of the face and eyelids, and maintains a perspective of individualizing each patient to deliver results that are natural and pleasing. As a result, Dr. Zoumalan and his staff routinely see patients from all areas of the country and world including Australia, Dubai, Asia (China, Korea, Japan, Singapore), Canada, Europe, India, Qatar, and Brazil.
Under Dr. Zoumalan’s care, patients can comfortably schedule surgery and plan their return home in a predictable manner. Our office arranges for hotel accommodations and nursing care as needed when visiting patients schedule surgery; our goal is to make the experience as easy and comfortable as possible.
Our office strives to make the consultation process as easy as possible for our potential patients. Our staff can arrange for you to virtually meet with the doctor prior to coming in for your examination.
Please read the steps below about the consultation process and please contact our office with any questions.
Step 1:
Please contact us with your request for either a virtual or in-office consultation. We ask you to send recent photographs of your eyelids and surrounding face using the below example. The photos should include:
Please take these photos indoors, with no natural light. Please note that all photos you send are confidential and will only be placed within your medical record.
Step 2: consultation with Dr. Zoumalan
Once we receive your photos, our Patient Care Coordinator will contact you to discuss Dr. Zoumalan’s preliminary assessment and schedule your in-office or virtual consultation. Our Patient Care Coordinator will also discuss with you the approximate cost of the procedure, financing options, and the surgery process, including recovery and downtime.
Step 3: Scheduling for surgery
Once you have spoken to the doctor and both of you feel comfortable with the surgical plan, our office will contact you to schedule your surgery with you. We will also schedule your pre-operative visit and post-operative visits as well. It is advised to arrive at minimum 48 hours before your surgery date to ensure all proper labs and paperwork are on file. We ask for you to stay in town at least six days in order to make sure you have healed well before your departure. There may be further post-operative visits required at a later date, which Dr. Zoumalan and the staff will inform you of depending on your procedure.
The staff will also provide you a pre-operation informational packet. The packet includes information that you will provide your regular doctor for your preoperative exam which you will need to have completed 2-4 weeks before surgery. The packet also includes a checklist of what you should bring with you on your surgery day and what to expect recovery-wise after surgery.
