Calf Augmentation - Pre-Surgical Phase |
|
| 1. Preparation Guidelines For The Operation Before Arrival |
It is crucial that you submit us the medical history form which should include (if any) prior procedures, medications, allergies, and your motivations for seeking plastic surgery. It is very important that you be thorough when providing your medical history, as this information helps to prevent complications during your care. Be sure to include any vitamin or herbal preparations, as these can affect your blood pressure and clotting ability.
Aspirin and aspirin containing products, as well as some supplements and "nutraceuticals" may inhibit blood clotting and cause difficulties during and after surgery. If you need an aspirin-free fever reducer and pain reliever, take Tylenol. Also, if you smoke, you shouldn't smoke at least 2 weeks prior and at least 2 weeks after your surgery date. Smoking significantly reduces your body's superficial circulation

Do not eat anything for eight hours before surgery. This is a common rule: if your surgery is in the morning do not eat after midnight the night before surgery.

Do not go on a strict diet in the weeks before your operation. |
