Although what needs to be done after Liposuction differs depending on the type of liposuction performed in general, it also has many common features. In this post, we tried to explain what should be considered after liposuction.
NOTE THE USE OF CORSETS
The most important thing to do after surgery is for the patient to walk or perform immediately if the procedure was performed under local anesthesia, if it was performed under general anesthesia, 1 hour after the operation. This simple measure is one of the most reliable measures against the risk of embolism, which many patients fear. In addition, another thing that is often requested from patients is that the corsets worn after surgery are not removed except for bathing during the first few weeks. According to how liposuction is applied, your doctor can tell you about lymphatic drainage massages that you should apply to your body after surgery, or refer you to a physical therapy clinic. If your doctor did not recommend a massage, you do not need to do so.
DIZZINESS MAY OCCUR
After Liposuction, patients are generally able to return to their normal lives within 1 to 7 days. But especially in cases where too much fat is taken, the patient may feel dizzy and sluggish. He can have problems like dizziness when he gets up. If you have complaints in this way, it is recommended to take plenty of fluids and pay attention to your diet, and if you have low blood values in the operation, use iron medications.
After Liposuction surgery, you do not need to wash to use the corset continuously. If your doctor has not told you otherwise, you can remove your corset and take a warm shower from the next day. If a drain is placed during the operation, they are also not an obstacle for you to take a shower. You can wash and dry your corset and put it back on. You don’t need to wear a new corset for a few hours without a corset. If you are actively engaged in sports, you can return to your Sports life within 1 to 3 weeks, depending on the type of liposuction. We just recommend that you don’t push yourself too hard at the beginning. After the operation, patients complain of not being able to go to the bathroom for the first few days. This is a normal process.
YOU CAN DRINK HERBAL TEA
We only recommend herbal teas unless your doctor recommends otherwise. You should avoid medication. After Liposuction, it is ideal to maintain your weight or give it away slowly if you still have excess weight. Especially in the first few months after liposuction, your motivation will be very high, and during this period you can get the form you want very easily by making a proper diet. By the way, the thing you should pay attention to is to do a diet, not stay hungry. A diet made by being hungry prevents your body from becoming weak and the necessary skin recovery after surgery.
