Why do I need a consultant?
I have been there, I will be here for you!
Juliana's personal story
“I have been through damages myself, I had to revise surgeries 7 to 8 times to get to the desired outcome. And every time I went to a different doctor, he would try to convince me that his method was the best. I wasn’t an expert by then, and confusion was at an all-time high; I only wanted the surgery to work and for me to get the desired outcome. Unfortunately, it wasn’t always the case, and thousands of dollars went down the drain, and it wasn’t always the surgeon’s mistake; sometimes it was because of a wrong belief, or a wrong expectation, or the wrong procedure, of the wrong product that was used, or even sometimes it was the wrong medical center.
I wish I had a consultant back then to guide me to the right procedure in the right hospital with the right doctor who is specialized in the right surgery!
Since then, I developed a passion for helping people look and feel better about themselves; I worked for many years as Quality and Communications Director at one of the most specialized plastic surgery centers in the Middle East; home for Lebanese, Brazilian, American, Swiss, and EU top board-certified Lebanese surgeons.
I also completed a double Masters in Hospital and Health Care Management from École Supérieure des Affaires (ESA Business School) in Beirut, and from Paris 7 Denis- Diderot University, France, specializing in plastic surgery industry, innovation, patient safety, health beauty care, medical tourism, wellness, and personal care sectors.
I witnessed hundreds of surgeries in the operation rooms and visited every single patient after his surgery to assess his experience and the outcome. I’ve had a front row seat to hundreds of surgeries, this allowed me to see and know for certain what works and what doesn’t, who are the best doctors out there, what are the best machines or products to use, and ultimately, the best medical centers for each type of procedure.
Now I am a fully certified Plastic Surgery Consultant, and I work according to the highest degrees of client care and satisfaction, but still, I keep pursuing and enhancing my education and my experience, the same way I keep enhancing my looks and health. I still attend the latest and most important conferences and webinars, participate in workshops, and stay up to date with the latest techniques, methods, technologies, and trends of plastic surgery. I was just awarded [11] European CME Credits (ECMEC®s) for my attendance and participation in the VIth World Congress of Plastic Surgeons of Lebanese Descent – (Washington DC).
