Patient information

 

 

Make sure You are in good health (both phisically and mentally) when You are about to be operated. You should have no flu, fever, or menstruation. In case You are allergic to any substance, please notify us beforehand. If You are taking prescription medication, please notify us and bring the medication along for the surgeon to check. Some medications can be dangerous in combination with anesthesia.


You should not take aspirin or any other blood-thinning medication (Burana, Orudis, Ketomex, Innohep, Marevan etc.) before the operation.

You should shower or bathe thoroughly before the operation. Your skin should be in good condition, undamaged and with no signs of infection.

You can not eat, drink, or smoke in the morning of the operation day. You can not drink alcoholic beverages within 24 hours before the operation because alcohol can be dangerous in combination with the medication You will be given in the clinic.

After certain plastic-surgery operations there is a possibility of swelling and slight bleeding around the incision spots for about two weeks. You should avoid heavy physical exercise for about a month after the operation. Take enough time for recovery.

Recovering from Your surgery is faster when You are in good physical condition. Also, You should keep the areas around the incisions clean. You should get up on Your feet on the next day after Your operation because staying in bed for too long slows down blood circulation. You should also perform light exercises when still in bed.

Depending on the type of surgery performed, the healing process may take up to 6 or even 9 months to complete. During this time it is possible to experience slight pain and colour changes around the incisions. The final results can be reached in 6 up to 9 months.

You should follow Your doctors pre- and postoperative instructions and have Your stitches removed and checked at the time specified by Your doctor, otherwise we can not take the responsibility for the results of the operation.
