Getting Ready
If you have committed to completing a high-definition liposuction transformation, there are still a few more items that you need to take care of.
First, you must make sure that you will have a spouse, friend, or responsible adult to transport you to and from the office. Remember that we are not allowed to let you use a rideshare service on your surgery day.
You will also need to arrange transportation to the office the day following surgery, as well as for visits every other day during the first week following surgery to complete your lymphatic massages and have our doctor monitor your progress. For these visits, you may use a rideshare service if you wish, but remember that you are not allowed to drive while taking pain medication.
In addition, make sure that you stock up on nutritious meals, such as prepared meals, since you may not feel like going to the store and will want to avoid eating fast food during your immediate recovery period.
Make sure that your bed is comfortable and that you are caught up on your laundry, as you will not want to be doing household chores.
Finally, check with your employer or arrange your business to be able to take a few days off work. Review your social calendar to make sure that you do not have any major events or trips planned, allowing yourself time to heal optimally.
