Postoperative recommendations – Buttocks lift surgery

What care should I take following buttocks lift surgery?

Part of the success of surgery depends on the postoperative care. It is very important to follow the surgeon´s recommendations to reach the desired outcome. Dr. Nieto closely observes her patient´s convalescence and healing. Please do not hesitate to contact her if you have questions or concerns. Written instructions will be given for your postoperative care to you and your family.

   
1
Strictly follow all physician`s recommendations.
 
2
Drainage tubes will be removed usually within 48-72 hours.
 
3
Dr. Nieto will give you specific instructions regarding bath and wound care.
 
4
You should try to remain as relaxed as possible, lying face down for the first 72 hours following surgery.
 
5
You should avoid sitting for long periods of time during the first three weeks following surgery.
 
6
You should sleep lying face down during the first three weeks.
 
7
You should avoid any strenuous movement or exercise to avoid implant migration.
 
8
You will be informed about your consultation to remove the sutures.
 
9
Do not smoke or drink any alcoholic beverage, as these activities may interfere with the healing process.
 
10
Your surgeon may recommend massage or ultrasound therapy.
 
11
Patient must return to the office for general check up as indicated by the physician.
 
12
Every patient´s healing process is different and the time and way tissues may respond to injury may vary. Usually our patients need 1-3 weeks to recover before resuming their normal activities.
 
13
You may experience a sensation of tension around the area but this will gradually decrease after surgery.
 
14
Antibiotics are prescribed to reduce the risk of infection. Also, you will receive pain medication to minimize any discomfort.
 
15
Inform immediately to your physician if you develop an unexpected reaction to the prescribed medication.
 
16
Prior to surgery, you must make arrangements for a responsible adult friend or family member to take you home and take care of you during your convalescence.
 
17
Avoid taking any medication that has not been prescribed by your doctor, especially aspirin (acetyl salicylic acid) or aspirin-like products (Ibuprofen, Advil, Motrin or Aleve). These medicines have anticoagulant adverse effects and may increase the risk of bleeding or scarring complications.
 
18
You should expect some bruising and swelling as a natural effect of surgery.
 
19
Avoid any strenuous activity for 2 weeks after surgery.
 
20
Lifting heavy things, animals or children may affect the area of surgery. You must avoid any activity that increases risk of hitting.
 
21
Exercise can be resumed 3 months after surgery.
 
22
Please inform Dr. Nieto if you present heavy bleeding from the wound, severe pain or chest pressure, high fever (more than 38 degrees), significant redness or severe discomfort.
