Thigh, Butt and Arm Lifts:
Preparing for Surgery |
|
 |
Before your surgery, routine laboratory tests may be requested.
Here are a few general guidelines that you should follow:
- Don't take aspirin or any drugs containing aspirin for at least two weeks before surgery. Aspirin can interfere with normal blood clotting.
- Don't eat or drink anything after midnight the night before surgery. Your stomach needs to be completely empty when undergoing anesthesia or sedation.
- Avoid drinking alcohol a few days prior to surgery.
- If you smoke, stop smoking before your procedure and for some time afterward. Smoking inhibits the healing process.
- Arrange for someone to drive you home and stay with you for the day so you can remain in bed and recover.
