Evita Clinic uses triclosan-coated antimicrobial sutures as one component of its broader surgical-site infection prevention protocol. Their use complements sterile technique, appropriate antibiotic management, careful tissue handling, and postoperative wound care.
Smoking significantly impacts post-surgical healing, especially in breast surgeries and tummy tucks, by constricting blood vessels and reducing oxygen supply. This can lead to complications like necrosis, delayed healing, and hypertrophic scarring. Ensuring adequate blood flow is critical for optimal recovery and aesthetic results. To minimize risks, smokers should quit at least one week before surgery and remain smoke-free for at least two weeks postoperatively. Prioritizing this step improves healing outcomes and overall surgical success.

A surgical drain is a small tube placed under your skin during procedures like Tummy Tucks, Gynecomastia, or Breast Surgery at Evita Clinic. Its main purpose is to remove excess fluid from the surgical area, which helps reduce swelling and promotes faster healing. You will need to empty the attached collection bulb several times daily and carefully record the fluid amount – this information is crucial for your surgeon during follow-up visits. While wearing the drain might feel slightly awkward, it is secured by a stitch and typically not painful. The drain is usually removed after 3 to 5 days, depending on your surgery and when the fluid output decreases significantly. The removal process is quick and generally involves only minor discomfort.
