Before
Plastic Surgery
Your plastic surgeon will instruct you on how to prepare for
your plastic surgery procedure. Depending on the procedure they
will give you specific instructions to help maximize the comfort
and results of your surgery, as well as to avoid any potential
health complications. Before any surgical procedure anti-inflammatory
medicines should be stopped well in advance because these increase
bleeding.
Lifestyle
modifications, like smoking and drinking must also be stopped
prior to plastic surgery and directly following the procedure.
Your personal plastic surgeon will instruct you when you should
stop and when you can return to your regular routine. The
24-hour period directly before your plastic surgery you will
need to stay food and beverage free most likely, and your
transportation to and from surgery should be arranged.
By
arriving early you can go over any last minute questions you
might have about your plastic surgery and are able to relax
and prepare for your procedure. Depending on what plastic
surgery procedure you are getting it is advised to wear comfortable,
loose fitting outfits for your return home since most procedures
are out patient. By following the advice and instructions
your plastic surgeon gives you and making sure you ask questions
about any concerns you have, you can help ensure that your
plastic surgery goes as smoothly and comfortably as possible.
