The success of most surgeries is dependent, in part, on steps taken in the days, weeks, or months before the surgery takes place. At San Diego Cosmetic Laser Clinic, Dr. Mani will give you a set of pre-operative instructions. In general, here’s some of what you may be able to expect:
– Quit smoking 4 weeks prior to surgery
– Avoid food, drinks, medications, and supplements that increase risk of bleeding and bruising for two weeks before surgery
– Make arrangements for a ride home on the day of the surgery
– Be sure you have several pairs of clean, loose panties available for your recovery time
– Set up a home recovery area
– Arrange for time off work and help around the house while you recover
– Fill any prescriptions for pain medication or antibiotics given to you by Dr. Mani
– Shave the pubic area two days before the surgery (optional)
It’s important to follow all of Dr. Mani’s pre- and post-operative instructions in order to help ensure a quick and complication-free recovery.
