Get Informed to Improve Surgical Outcomes in Winnetka and Chicago

Patient education is a priority for Chicago-area plastic surgeon Dr. John Q. Cook and the Whole Beauty^® Institute team. Better-informed patients tend to experience greater satisfaction with the results of their procedures because they feel confident in their choices, know what to expect from the experience, and are properly prepared for the post-surgical period.

Learn facts and get advice related to facial, breast, and body surgery, including what makes good candidates for various procedures, what to ask prospective surgeons, results to expect from specific techniques, recovery and follow-up information, and more. Consider starting with 10 Questions to Ask Before Undergoing Facial Surgery, Dr. Cook’s Breast Surgery Interview, or Tummy Tuck Candidates.

To arrange a consultation or to learn more, please contact Dr. John Cook at the Whole Beauty^® Institute in Chicago or Winnetka. Call 312-751-2112 or send a message online.
