At bŏdze, we’re all about helping you look and feel your best, with honesty, intention, and a commitment to your long-term well-being. Whether you’re here for body contouring, wrinkle relaxers, or personalized wellness support, the goal is always the same: create thoughtful, customized results that enhance your life.
But there are moments during consultations when a red flag pops up. These aren’t meant to judge, they’re just indicators that a patient might not be quite ready. So if you’ve ever wondered what gives a provider pause, here are a few things we notice:
1. You’re looking for a “quick fix”
We love the confidence boost a tummy tuck, facelift, or lip filler can bring. But let’s be clear: no treatment or surgery is an overnight transformation. Swelling, downtime, and healing are part of the process. At bŏdze, we don’t do “instant.” We do real results with artistry and care. And that takes time.
2. You’re making a big decision during a big life change
Going through a divorce, career shift, or emotional upheaval? That’s a lot and we’re here to support you. But if you’re thinking about major surgery (like liposuction 360 or a mommy makeover) in the middle of it all, we may suggest pressing pause. These procedures are best done with a clear mind, stable goals, and space to focus on recovery.
3. You’re more focused on price than safety
We understand budgets. But when it comes to surgical and aesthetic care, cutting corners can lead to poor outcomes or even serious complications. At bŏdze, your safety always comes first. Our surgeons, expert team, and state-of-the-art protocols are here to protect your results and your health.
4. You’re not on board with pre-op guidelines
Every protocol we set is there for a reason, whether it’s pausing certain meds, quitting smoking, or stabilizing your weight before surgery. If someone isn’t willing to follow our safety roadmap, that’s a red flag. Our team can only deliver exceptional care when we’re working together.
5. You don’t trust your provider’s recommendations
Our providers approach every case with an eye for balance, symmetry, and what’s safely achievable. If we say something may not work for your body, or suggest a different approach than what you expected, it’s not because we’re holding back. It’s because we care enough to be honest. Trust is the foundation of every successful result.
6. You treat the team with disrespect
This one’s simple. At bŏdze, we treat everyone, staff and patients alike, with warmth and respect. That means valuing our front desk, aftercare specialists, and aesthetic nurses as much as the surgeons. If someone isn’t kind to our team, we may not be the right fit.
Final Thoughts
Surgery and medical aesthetics are a partnership. The best outcomes come from open communication, mutual respect, and shared goals. At bŏdze, we’re here to support you at every step of your transformation with expert care, thoughtful guidance, and a deep respect for your aesthetic journey.
If you’re ready to take the next step, we’d love to meet you.
