Visiting the Windy City
To ensure the highest level of care, we recommend arriving in Chicago the day before your surgery to settle in and meet with the team at Hudson Facial Plastic Surgery. Because your recovery is our priority, facelift and neck lift patients should remain in town for 10 days post-procedure for personalized follow-up care and suture removal. If you are having a minor procedure like an eyelid lift, we recommend a shorter 5-day stay. This time allows us to support you through every step of the early healing process.
Curated patient-care service
At Hudson Facial Plastic Surgery in Chicago, customized, modern care is our baseline. We are dedicated to ensuring your recovery is as seamless as your results, offering personalized assistance in arranging accommodations at the many exceptional hotels and amenities just steps from our practice.
For those seeking an elevated recovery experience, our care coordinators are available to manage every detail of your stay. We also offer an exclusive, 24/7 concierge nursing service for an additional fee, providing professional medical support and peace of mind around the clock.

Your day of surgery

Most of our procedures are performed on an outpatient basis, allowing you to transition to the comfort of your own home or hotel after a brief, pampered stay in our recovery area. We provide a meticulous, step-by-step recovery roadmap along with all the essentials you need to ensure your healing process is as peaceful and effortless as possible.
What happens after?
Post-operative care is a vital component of the Hudson Facial Plastic Surgery experience. Dr. Hudson will meet with you for several follow-up appointments to evaluate your surgical site and ensure your recovery meets our high clinical standards. These sessions are an ideal time to discuss your healing timeline and any unique needs. Throughout your convalescence, our staff provides around-the-clock availability to support your comfort and safety.
