• In some states, officials are now allowing elective procedures, including plastic surgery, to resume.
• Some plastic surgeons have reopened their offices, but Miami-based surgeon Dr. Michael Salzhauer decided to create a drive-thru clinic in his office's garage instead.
• Salzhauer, who is also known as "Dr. Miami," said the entire process takes five minutes and minimizes doctor-patient contact.

When non-essential businesses around the country shut down due to the coronavirus pandemic, plastic surgeons' offices that offer elective procedures like breast implants and lip fillers closed their doors too.

Now that some states are once again allowing elective procedures, plastic surgeons can re-open their offices, and they are.

But when officials in Miami, Florida gave doctors the go-ahead on May 4, plastic surgeon Dr. Michael Salzhauer, otherwise known as "Dr. Miami," decided to take an entirely new approach to Botox appointments.

Instead of seeing patients in his office, he created a drive-thru Botox clinic where those in need of a refill or first-time injection can drive up in their car, take a temperature check, and roll down their window for an injection from Dr. Miami.
