✅ Pre-Operative Instructions
- Fasting: Do not eat or drink anything at least 6 hours before anesthesia.
- Weight Management: Avoid gaining weight before surgery for the best results.
- Smoking Cessation: No smoking at least 2 weeks before and after surgery. This includes electronic cigarettes and vaping.
- Medication Guidelines:
- Discontinue blood-thinning medications (e.g., aspirin, ibuprofen) at least 2 weeks prior and 1 week post-surgery.
- Avoid vitamins, especially C and E, for 2 weeks before and 1 week after surgery.
- Stop hormone therapies 3 weeks before and 2 weeks after surgery (consult your physician).
- Health Considerations:
- Inform the surgeon if you have a history of excessive bleeding, high blood pressure, or mental health conditions.
- Avoid scheduling surgery close to your menstrual period.
❌ What to Avoid
- Alcohol and recreational drugs prior to surgery.
- Vigorous activities that may cause bruising or injury before surgery.
- Heavy meals the night before your procedure.
2. The Liposuction Procedure
Step-by-Step Surgical Process
- Consultation & Body Analysis:
- A detailed consultation with the surgeon, including a body analysis using the InBody system to assess fat distribution and body composition.
- Ultrasonic measurements to determine the thickness of the fat layer and estimate the removable fat volume.
- Anesthesia & Marking:
- The targeted areas are marked while the patient is in a standing position to accurately assess fat accumulation.
- Anesthesia is administered for a pain-free experience.
- Tumescent Solution Injection & Laser Treatment:
- A tumescent solution is injected to dissolve fat and minimize bleeding.
- The Accusculp 1444nm laser is used for internal lipolysis, promoting even skin tightening.
- Fat Removal Techniques:
- Power-Assisted Liposuction (PAL): Removes deep fat layers effectively using a mechanical cannula.
- Hand Manual Method: Ideal for superficial fats and allows precision in areas that require delicate handling.
- Surgical Wound Management:
- Minimal incisions are used, and careful techniques ensure minimal scarring.
- Photos are taken before and after surgery for progress tracking.
3. Post-Operative Care & Recovery
Immediate Aftercare
- Wear a compression garment to reduce swelling and support healing.
- Follow prescribed medication schedules strictly.
- Avoid strenuous activities for the first 2 weeks.
Follow-Up Treatments
- Post-operative care includes RF (Radiofrequency) and Endomology systems to enhance the effect of the procedure and promote faster recovery.
- Regular follow-up visits to monitor healing and address any concerns.
Recovery Timeline
- Day 1-3: Rest and avoid any heavy lifting.
- Week 1-2: Light activities are allowed. Avoid direct sunlight on incisions.
- Week 4 and beyond: Gradual return to exercise and normal activities. Continue wearing compression garments as advised.
