Frequently Asked Questions
According to National Plastic Surgery statistics from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), each year, close to two million American women and men elect cosmetic plastic surgery. Some desire noticeable change while others want subtle refinements. The best candidate for plastic surgery is a person of good health with a firm understanding of both his or her personal goals and the procedure’s risks and benefits. Only you know what you hope to gain with plastic surgery; Dr. Canales and Dr. Furnas‘ job is ultimately to help you realize that personal goal while minimizing the risks and maximizing the benefits.
When your procedure is performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon in an operating room that has been certified by a national agency, absolutely. In fact, a 1995 California law imposes strict standards to ensure patient safety and the highest in quality care. The surgery suite at Plastic Surgery Associates is certified to the highest national standards and is in compliance with the California law.
Only you can answer this question, and no plastic surgeon should push you to make a decision before you’re ready; only you will know when that time is right. The goal of board-certified Santa Rosa plastic surgeons Dr. Francisco Canales and Dr. Heather Furnas is to help you make an informed decision, providing you with information regarding both the risks and rewards of plastic surgery. Although you will find this website a great source of up-to-date information, nothing can replace a face-to-face meeting; request your consultation today.

Plastic Surgery Associates provides patients from Marin County and throughout Northern California with a full menu of body contouring, facial sculpting, breast enhancement, and medical spa services. Call Dr. Canales or Dr. Furnas today to request your consultation. Normally $25, your consultation is free when you request it online.
Costs vary according to both procedure and region. Please do not choose your surgeon strictly on the lowest price offered to you. Also, please be aware that when you are quoted a cost that you compare “apples with apples.” For instance, is the price you’re quoted inclusive of the surgery suite, anesthesia, surgery fees, and post-operative care? It is at Plastic Surgery Associates. For instance, some surgeons do the anesthesia themselves while others prefer that nurses deliver the anesthesia. For your safety and comfort, Plastic Surgery Associates uses only board-certified physician anesthesiologists.
