Liposuction
The Day Of My Surgery?
facility. Various types of anesthesia may be used for liposuction. Dr.
Behmand and your anesthesiologist will select the type of anesthesia that
provides the safest and most effective level of comfort for your procedure.
For some patients, local anesthesia is used (usually with sedation) which
numbs only the affected areas. For others general anesthesia may be the
best choice. Your physical status will be closely monitored throughout the
procedure and during your recovery.
When your surgery is complete, you will be taken to the recovery area.
For some patients, small drainage tubes may have been placed under the
skin. Any discomfort that you may feel can be controlled with medication
prescribed for you. A specially designed compression garment will have
been applied to your neck to control swelling and to assist healing.
Very soon after surgery, you will be encouraged to get out of bed to help
improve blood circulation. At the minimum you should plan to get up to
go to the bathroom and for meals. Additional short walks around the
house are also encouraged.
