Plastic surgery telehealth consult

Has anyone had their initial PS consult through telehealth? Just wondering what to expect... thanks!

not telehealth (although I'm betting that's the way a lot of them are doing it now!), but i did have one through email. He had me send pictures of myself (with head cut off) from all four angles, and then he contacted me and gave me his recommendations plus an estimate. It was pretty easy - and I bet it would be even easier through telehealth since you guys can actually talk to each other in real time.

Thanks. I had the telehealth visit today and it was just talking. The surgeon will see me in the office to do a full evaluation once their clinics re-open. I got to ask a few questions and will be in the front of the line when things open up for an in-person consult. So it was useful for that.
