How to recover after Liposuction
How Do I Recover?
Each surgery requires specific post-operative care and your surgeon will give you all the information pertinent to your procedure/s.
However there are some general tips that can help you get through the early post-op days as comfortably as possible:
•Don’t expect to look fantastic right away – if you anticipate some bruising and swelling you will be mentally prepared for the initial few days.
•Ice packs and compressors can alleviate much of the swelling and discomfort.
•Do not use any pain medication that is not prescribed by your surgeon. If you feel the need to take anti-inflammatories you must clear this with your doctor first.
•Recovery to the face and neck area can be greatly assisted by keeping your head elevated for two or three days after surgery. If you fail to carry out this simple procedure you could in fact prolong the recovery process and may even experience an adverse effect on the results.
•Make sure you check how soon you may bath, shower, wash your hair etc.
•Do not return to work or take on heavy tasks sooner than advised by your doctor. Practice patience and make the most of legitimate time off!
•Check when you will be able to drive again. This will also be dependent on the pain medication you are taking.
•Do not start exercising too soon, even if you feel able to. The possible injury or damage to the surgery site is not worth a few extra days off the treadmill!
•It’s very tempting to want to laze by the pool and get a golden tan to go with your newly enhanced face or body. However, exposure to the sun after surgery can be very detrimental so keep in the shade and use a sun block with a minimum SPF of 15.
•There are many alternative therapies that can enhance the recovery process while making you feel better emotionally. Some doctors will recommend practitioners. Even if your surgeon is not particularly in favour of complementary medicine he or she should be able to advise which therapies are safe. Always check with your surgeon first and only make use of registered practitioners.
