3. Health-Related Browsing Information

Because our website offers medical, surgical, aesthetic, and wellness services, some online activity may reveal health-related interests.

When our consent banner is displayed, you may accept all optional categories, reject non-essential technologies, or manage categories individually. You may change or withdraw your choices later through the Privacy Choices or Cookie Settings link available on the website.

Rejecting non-essential cookies does not prevent you from using core website functions. Certain optional website features may operate differently when related technologies are disabled.

5. Third-Party Services

Some technologies are provided by third parties, such as analytics, embedded media, maps, scheduling, call tracking, advertising, or other service providers. Their processing is subject to applicable contracts, consent choices, and privacy requirements. We periodically review the technologies present on our website and adjust classifications or settings when services change.
