Reply: Patient Preferences for Utilization of Telemedicine in Aesthetic Surgery Consultations

This paper is a reply to Parsa Veisi Commentary discussing concerns raised regarding our paper Long et al. (Aesthet Plast Surg 49:4439-4446, 2025). Our paper aimed to assess patient preferences and comfort with virtual aesthetic consultation. The findings provide relevant insights that enable readers to critically interpret the results and assess their applicability to their own practice settings. Importantly, this study functions as a robust hypothesis generator source to drive future research studies.No Level Assigned This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each submission to which Evidence-Based Medicine rankings are applicable.
