We are excited to share that Dr. Sara Dickie was recently featured in The Wall Street Journal in an article discussing seasonal trends in plastic surgery and recovery timing. Being included in one of the nation’s most respected publications is a meaningful recognition of Dr. Dickie’s expertise and insight within the field of aesthetic and reconstructive surgery.
The Rise of “Winter Recovery”
The Wall Street Journal article explored the growing trend of patients scheduling surgery during the colder months—a strategy sometimes referred to as “post-op hibernation.” Winter provides a natural opportunity for privacy, layered clothing, and downtime, allowing patients to recover comfortably before spring and summer social seasons begin.
Dr. Dickie contributed expert perspective on why thoughtful timing matters. Recovery planning, activity restrictions, and lifestyle considerations all influence when surgery should be performed. For many patients, winter offers a practical window for healing without the pressure of summer events, travel, or outdoor activities.
