Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Scott E. Andochick

Sourced directly from Dr. Scott E. Andochick's social posts and replies.

What should patients know about planning cosmetic surgery around holidays and recovery timelines?
Timing is crucial when planning cosmetic surgery, especially before holidays like Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Year’s Eve. Different procedures require varying amounts of downtime, and swelling and healing can continue for weeks. Dr. Andochick's practice provides recommended timelines, and patients are advised to plan ahead as holiday surgery dates can fill quickly. Giving yourself plenty of recovery time can significantly improve the outcome for a special event. The surgeon will recommend an appropriate recovery timeline based on your individual surgical plan and procedure, as recovery varies by patient.
What are the differences between over-the-muscle and under-the-muscle breast implant placement, and which is right for me?
There is no one-size-fits-all answer for breast implant placement; your anatomy, breast tissue, implant choice (such as Mentor or Natrelle Inspira), lifestyle, and desired result all play a role. Over-the-muscle implants are placed behind breast tissue but in front of the chest muscle, typically resulting in less discomfort and quicker recovery, with no implant movement when flexing the chest. This is a great option when there’s enough natural breast tissue for coverage. Under-the-muscle implants are placed partially behind the chest muscle, providing additional coverage and often creating a smooth, natural-looking transition, especially when breast tissue is thinner. Recovery for under-the-muscle placement may involve more initial tightness or soreness. During your consultation, Dr. Andochick will help determine the best approach for your body and goals.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2024)

$69

Payments

2

Compared to peers

Small

Dr. Scott E. Andochick received $69 across 2 payments in 2024. That is in the lower half for physicians here — totals this size are typically meals at sponsored talks. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was Mentor Worldwide LLC.

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
