It’s my understanding the plastic surgeons ask after the fact, pre/post photos are taken for the medical record. If the patients are happy at their follow up you ask for consent.

In your situation it does seem coercive to ask beforehand.

it is a power relationship no matter when you are being asked.

you still need good post op care from the doctor after the follow up to , people would tend to consent when their doctor asks

At the final follow-up (which isn’t very much for aesthetics) not right after the surgery, sorry I wasn’t clear.
