Starting at midnight on the day of your procedure, we ask that you do not drink or eat anything. If you do not fast, we may not be able to perform your surgery. This is because we put you under general anesthesia. In addition to fasting, you should ensure you have transportation for after your procedure, since you may not be safe to drive.

During the consultation stage, we may ask that you alter your current list of medications. With your primary care physician’s approval, we may have you temporarily stop taking certain prescriptions that could possibly interfere with the surgical process.

After your surgery, be sure to wear any medical garments and drains we give you to help reduce swelling. Depending on where you have received treatment, you may need 1 to 2 weeks of initial recovery before you can return to your normal range of movement. This can extend to 2 to 4 weeks if your surgery is extensive. Most patients fully heal after 3 to 6 months, which is also when you can see finished results.
