About Facial Procedures

Most of the questions your viewers/readers/listeners will have will pertain to general costs, as well as specifics on individual procedures. Dr. Cherup will be happy to review such topics with you on a case-by-case basis. Here are some additional questions we are often asked and which will be of some importance to your audience:

Is Dr. Cherup Board Certified?

Yes, Dr. Cherup is a Board Certified plastic surgeon. She has been certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgeons.

Can my procedure be done outpatient?

Depending on the procedure, yes! Most of the procedures we perform can be done on an outpatient basis. Patients recover in a private recovery room and are discharged to home and the comforts of their own enviroment.

Is Radiance Surgery Center different than other surgery centers most commonly associated with hospitals?

Radiance Surgery Center has undergone the same stringent inspections required by the State of Pennsylvania and Medicare. We have also achieved our JCAHO accreditation, which is not required of us, but illustrates that the center provides only the highest standard of care available. The comfortable, private and caring setting of our center makes for a much better experience than going to a hospital to be processed through their system for a procedure.

Do you accept insurance or if cosmetic, what types of payment do you accept?

Both Dr. Cherup and the Surgery center accept many types of insurance plans, as well as workmans comp and Medicare. For cosmetic and self-pay procedures, we accept cash, checks, Visa, Master Card and Discover. We can also put you in touch with a finance company who can help you make payments over time.

Can I have multiple procedures done at the same time?

Depending on what those procedures are, yes. The State mandates that cases in an outpatient setting not exceed four hours in length. This is also very important for patient safety. You will be examined and once a surgical plan is developed, it can then be determined how long your surgery will take and what can be done during a single surgical visit.
