How can I prepare for liposuction/body contouring?
You will undergo a preliminary physical exam to ensure that you are healthy enough for the procedure. You will also have photos taken before the procedure, your weight and measurements of the treatment areas will be taken. You may receive additional instructions and have the opportunity to ask any questions during this pre-op consultation.
There are several things that you should do to prepare for your procedure including:
• Stop smoking
• Avoid blood thinners including aspirin and anti-inflammatory medication for about ten days before surgery
• Avoid herbal supplements and vitamin E for about ten days before surgery to minimize bleeding.
• Keep your weight under control
• Laboratory blood tests may be indicated
• Arrange for a responsible adult to take you home and stay with you after the procedure
I had such a positive experience here with Dr. Z and his staff. From the initial consultation to my post-surgery appts. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. All my questions/concerns were addressed, the surgery itself went really well (and I am so happy with my results, seriously life changing), my recovery went smoothly and Dr. Z gave me his personal cell # so I could reach out if I had any worries during my recovery. Dr. Z and his staff truly care about their patients and go above and beyond to deliver the best results! I highly recommend coming here if you need any aesthetic surgery, you won't be disappointed.
