These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the website located at drhonrado.com, operated by Carlo P. Honrado, M.D., Inc. ("we," "us," "the practice"). By using this website, you confirm you are at least 18 years of age and agree to these Terms.

§ 2 — Informational Purpose Only

This website provides general educational information about facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. Nothing on this website constitutes medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Information is provided for general informational purposes only.

Viewing or using this website does not create a doctor-patient relationship between you and Dr. Carlo Honrado or any member of the practice. A formal consultation with Dr. Honrado is required before any clinical relationship is established.

Medical emergency: If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 immediately or go to your nearest emergency room. Do not rely on this website for emergency guidance.

§ 3 — Consultation Requests

Submitting a consultation inquiry form on this website constitutes a request for information only. Submission does not guarantee an appointment, confirm availability, or establish any obligation on the part of the practice. The practice reserves the right to accept or decline consultation requests at its discretion.

Contact details you provide will be used solely to respond to your inquiry. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

§ 4 — AI Assistant (Mentis)

This website features Mentis, an AI-powered chat assistant. Mentis is an automated artificial intelligence system — it is not a physician, not a member of clinical staff, and not Dr. Carlo Honrado. Mentis discloses its AI nature at the start of every conversation.

Mentis provides general educational information about facial plastic surgery procedures only. It does not and cannot:

• Provide medical advice, diagnoses, or clinical assessments
• Recommend specific procedures for your individual situation
• Quote prices or fees for any procedure
• Confirm or book appointments
• Represent the personal views or medical opinions of Dr. Honrado

AI responses may contain errors or omissions. Always consult a qualified physician before making any medical decision. Mentis is governed by California AB 489 (AI Disclosure) and operates in full compliance. See our AI Disclosure for details.

§ 5 — Before & After Images

Before and after photographs on this website depict actual patients of Dr. Honrado who have consented to their use. Results shown are individual patient outcomes and are not a guarantee of results. Individual outcomes vary based on anatomy, procedure type, and other factors.

All before and after images comply with California Business and Professions Code §651 requirements. Images have not been altered except for cropping and size adjustment. Comparable presentation standards (lighting, angle, framing) are maintained.

All content on this website — including text, photography, design, graphics, and software — is owned by or licensed to Carlo P. Honrado, M.D., Inc. and is protected by applicable copyright, trademark, and intellectual property laws.
