Cosmetic Surgery in OKC for Waco, TX Patients

Why patients travel from Waco to Oklahoma City

Cosmetic surgery is elective. You choose the surgeon, the facility, and the city. Some patients find the right match close to home. Others look further — across state lines — because a specific surgeon's experience, a specific procedure, or the standards of the facility matter more than proximity.

Oklahoma Surgical Arts operates out of an AAAHC-accredited surgery center in Oklahoma City with two operating rooms. Dr. Angelo Cuzalina founded the practice and directs its AACS-accredited fellowship. His published case volume exceeds 18,000 procedures, with particular focus on rhinoplasty, deep plane facelift, complex revision surgery, and total-body contouring. The six cosmetic surgeons of the Tulsa Surgical Arts roster all serve Oklahoma City patients, and Dr. Trent Fogleman practices here full-time.

The consultation starts the plan

Every plan here begins the same way, whether you live seven miles away or 280. You meet the surgeon. You are examined. You describe what bothers you in your own words. You leave with a written plan and a written, all-in number — both yours to keep, to decide on your own time. There is no pressure in the room and none after you leave it.

Consultations are available in person at the Oklahoma City office or virtual from anywhere. Virtual consultations let Waco patients have a thorough initial conversation without booking a flight. When surgery is scheduled, a single in-person pre-operative visit confirms the plan. You choose your surgeon and your city — surgery happens in Oklahoma City or Tulsa.

Ask for a specific surgeon when you book, or share your goals and the team will match you.

Getting here and knowing what to bring

The practice is located at 12400 Saint Andrew's Dr, Oklahoma City, OK 73120. Parking is free and on-site. On surgery day, your driver pulls directly to the entrance for drop-off and pick-up. The team confirms your arrival time for your specific case — not a general clinic opening.

Bring photo ID, your completed paperwork, a written list of every medication and supplement you take, glasses and a case (no contact lenses), phone and charger. Wear loose, front-opening clothing and slip-on shoes. No makeup, lotion, deodorant, or fragrance on surgery day. Leave jewelry, piercings, and valuables at home.

After anesthesia you may not drive yourself home, take a rideshare alone, or leave unaccompanied. A responsible adult drives you home and stays with you for the first 24 hours. Your driver checks in with you, stays reachable by phone for the entire day, and receives your discharge instructions in person.

Surgery day and recovery for traveling patients

You arrive at the time confirmed by the surgical team. Check-in, pre-operative preparation, and a final review with your surgeon and anesthesia provider follow. You wake in recovery under one-to-one observation, then discharge home with your driver and your written instructions.

Traveling patients from Waco should plan their stay so that follow-up appointments and any early recovery needs are covered before the drive home. When any instruction from your surgical team differs from general guidance, their instructions win. The practice phone is 405-751-0042 for questions at any point in the process.

The full menu of procedures

The practice offers breast augmentation, tummy tuck, liposuction, breast lift, eyelid surgery, rhinoplasty, mommy makeover, gynecomastia surgery, facial surgery, deep plane facelift, complex revision surgery, and total-body contouring. BOTOX®, Jeuveau™, Dysport, and XEOMIN®; Juvéderm, SkinVive, Radiesse, Sculptra, and Versa are available as well — consultation first, never a cart.
