6 Cosmetic Surgery Contract Gotchas

- Non-Refundable Deposits: MEDIUM 10-25% deposits typically non-refundable even if you cancel or surgery is postponed
- Financing Terms: MEDIUM CareCredit or in-house financing may have high interest rates. Promotional 0% APR periods are limited
- Post-Op Care Requirements: MEDIUM Strict recovery protocols required. Non-compliance may void any revision coverage
