Out-of-Town Patients

Traveling to Birmingham AL for Plastic Surgery

Many patients travel from out-of-town to have their procedure at Hedden & Gunn Plastic Surgery. Some drive a few hours while others fly in to Birmingham, Alabama from around the country or from overseas. All of these patients are seeking the right plastic surgeon to realize their dreams.

We understand that traveling for plastic surgery can be an emotional experience. Our caring physicians and staff are devoted to your safety, comfort and support should you decide to travel to Birmingham to have your procedure with our experienced plastic surgeons.

To ensure that you get the best possible care and cosmetic results, we usually require a 3-day stay in Birmingham — your consultation on the first day, surgery on the second day and post-op appointment on the third day.
