If you are considering the treatment, consult a good plastic surgeon in NYC to learn if you are a good candidate for it. If you are cleared, you need to prepare for the treatment. A reliable surgeon will provide comprehensive instructions to help you manage all the phases – pre-surgical, treatment, and recovery. On your part, you can prepare for the procedure by buying certain items.
Here is a list of the must-haves:
- Wipes to clean yourself until you can shower again
- Anti-bacterial soap to clean your incisions
- A female urinal, as you won’t be able to sit after surgery for a few days
- Loose outfits that will be easy to slip on and off after surgery
- A boppy pillow to protect your butt after the surgery
- Stool softener/laxatives to use in the initial days
- Pre-op vitamins and post-op protein as advises to help repair the body
Optional items you can consider include: a folding chair to assist going to the bathroom, socks to put over compression stockings, hand lotion, firming lotion, neck/body pillows, and sugar scrub (sugar and olive oil) for your pre-surgery shower. Make your home post-operative ready before you have the procedure so that you can be at ease once you get home. Following all the post-surgical instructions that your surgeon gives you can promote smooth recovery.
