The Artisan Center for Plastic Surgery welcomes patients from out of town and across the world. We are honored that so many patients travel to see Dr. Rodgers!
Whether you are traveling from a neighboring state or flying in internationally, our team is dedicated to making your surgical journey as comfortable, seamless, and stress-free as possible. From your initial digital consultation through your final post-operative visit, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. B. Allen Rodgers and our experienced staff provide personalized concierge support every step of the way.
Contact The Artisan Center for Plastic Surgery today to initiate your virtual assessment and take the first step toward your aesthetic goals.
For your convenience, we offer virtual consultations. Simply give us a call to get started. We will have a brief conversation to get your contact information and learn more about your needs and goals. We will then email you a link and ask you to create a profile on our portal where we have you securely submit a medical history and photos for evaluation by Dr. Rodgers. Dr. Rodgers will then view these and, with your goals in mind, provide a proper assessment, surgical plan, and quote. Should you decide to go forward after receiving and reviewing the quote, you can call our office for the next steps.
Begin your journey from the comfort of home. Once you submit your secure medical profile and photos, Dr. Rodgers personally evaluates your aesthetic goals and formulates a customized surgical proposal and quote.
When you are ready to move forward, our patient coordinator assists you with securing your surgery date, providing initial preparation guidelines, and coordinating your arrival timeline.
When moving forward with surgery, you should plan to arrive in the Katy/Houston area at least one to two days prior to your surgery date. We will schedule an in-person appointment that will serve as your pre-operative exam and give you the opportunity to meet with Dr. Rodgers and discuss any last-minute concerns or questions. We will review pre-operative guidelines and provide you with detailed post-operative care instructions.
Your procedure takes place in a fully accredited surgical facility in the Katy/Houston area, supported by experienced anesthesia and nursing professionals focused on your safety and comfort.
Your recovery period will depend on the type of procedure you have. Our care team will give you personalized guidelines and time estimates for recovery. You will remain in the local area for a specified period following surgery so Dr. Rodgers can evaluate your early progress, manage any surgical drains or dressings, and ensure it is safe for you to travel back home.
Our practice is conveniently located in Katy, TX, offering easy access to world-class medical facilities, international airports, and comfortable lodging options.
Houston George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) and William P. Hobby Airport (HOU) both offer convenient ground transportation and rental car services directly to Katy.
Katy features numerous high-end hotels and quiet extended-stay suites equipped with amenities tailored for post-surgical rest.
For patients undergoing extensive procedures or those traveling alone, our office can connect you with professional private duty nursing services to assist during your initial post-operative days.
Your required stay depends on the complexity of your procedure. Minor non-surgical treatments or short outpatient surgeries may require only 2 to 4 days locally, while major surgical procedures (such as facelifts, explant surgery, or combined body contouring) typically require 7 to 10 days before Dr. Rodgers clears you for travel home.
Flying is generally safe once cleared by Dr. Rodgers. Short domestic flights may be permitted after 7 to 10 days, while long-haul or international flights may require 10 to 14 days to minimize risks such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or fluid retention.
After you return home, your recovery progress continues through scheduled phone calls, secure photo check-ins, and video follow-up appointments with our care team to ensure your healing remains on track.
