Candidate patients for abdominoplasty must prepare their bodies very well for this intervention. As it usually is (depending on the case) an extensive surgery, the patient must, first of all, have an optimal state of health. It is imperative to follow these recommendations to take good care of abdominoplasty before surgery:
Stabilize body weight.
And keep it constant for at least half a year before the tummy tuck.
Rule out hernias or other problems.
Hernias or other problems can cause risks and inconveniences that are incompatible with surgery. If they exist, a combined surgery should be considered to repair the abdominal area.
Withdraw food or medicine that affects clotting.
All of them should be removed at least 10-15 days before abdominoplasty.
No Smoking.
Smoking seriously affects blood circulation, causing poor healing and other problems related to surgical wounds’ slow recovery.
8 hours fast.
Patients must keep total a fast for at least 8 hours before the surgery of the surgery.
