WHAT IS COSMETIC SURGERY RECOVERY?

Cosmetic surgery recovery is generally understood as a gradual process of healing that occurs over the course of several weeks and must be completed to reveal the full and final results of the cosmetic procedure.

Dr. Emer views cosmetic surgery recovery as encompassing every aspect of the post-op experience leading up to complete healing. He has spoken with countless patients about their recovery from plastic surgery and understands the many and varied challenges patients can face post-operatively.

Dr. Emer also knows what patients risk when they aren’t prepared for their plastic surgery recovery, which is why he has made it a priority to make post-op services available to patients of his medical practice, as well as to patients of other providers. He continues to refine his approach to aftercare and make it easy for patients to arrange and experience their ideal recovery conditions.

PROCEDURE DETAILS

WHAT ARE COSMETIC SURGERY RECOVERY SERVICES?

Cosmetic surgery recovery services are intended to accelerate healing, reduce the likelihood of complications, minimize stress, and support maximum aesthetic improvements.
Dr. Emer offers patients access to beautiful, private aftercare accommodations. Your stay in an Emer Oasis recovery house includes an on-site caregiver and the option to pamper yourself with add-on services.
Intravenous (IV) delivery of the coenzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), or NAD IV therapy, stimulates revitalization at the cellular level. NAD provides a broad spectrum of benefits, boosting your body’s ability to fight inflammation, stabilize your mood, and maintain skin health.
Specially trained massage therapists can use manual lymphatic drainage techniques to mobilize stagnant fluids in the body. Dr. Emer recommends a series of lymphatic massage sessions to accelerate post-op detoxification and reduce swelling after plastic surgery.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy involves breathing oxygen in a pressurized chamber to increase the amount of oxygen available to the body’s wound-healing systems.
Access to telemedicine services remotely or in-person in San Diego ensures timely, personalized care, if the need arises.
IV hydration and vitamin therapy by LIVV Wellness Lounge is a fast-acting solution for many post-op issues, including dehydration, inflammation, and detoxification. IV therapy is also the most efficient method of replenishing depleted vitamins and nutrients to restore balance in the body.
If your post-op diet does not supply the body with sufficient calories and nutrients to power the healing process, progress will slow, and recovery will take longer. A personal chef is one way to ensure that you have access to appetizing, low-effort, and highly-nutritious meals and snacks even when meal prep and cooking are not advisable, practical, or appealing.
Not only will you need a ride to your recovery accommodations after your procedure, but you will likely be instructed not to drive for a week or more to prevent setbacks in healing, abnormal scarring, and other complications. A personal driver who understands your condition can provide the reliable, curbside service you need to stay on track with your aftercare treatment schedule and with the convenience of advanced-scheduling.
Hormonal peptide therapy can be tailored to stimulate natural processes within the body. It can help to prevent and treat various age-related issues, including inflammation, obesity, and osteoporosis.
Enhancing your appearance through cosmetic surgery can be a catalyst for positive change in other areas of your life. This cosmetic surgery recovery service gives you access to a highly-skilled life coach who can help you capitalize on opportunities for personal growth and greater well-being.

WHY IT’S IMPORTANT TO PLAN FOR COSMETIC SURGERY

One of the most important aspects of preparing for cosmetic surgery is planning for the recovery period. What you do and don’t do during your post-operative recovery will either positively or negatively affect your final results.

If you aren’t educated about the post-op recovery process, you can’t prepare, and you can easily sabotage the healing process, and consequently, your final results. Alternatively, if you can thoughtfully and thoroughly plan for this critical stage of the treatment process, you can enjoy a shorter, more comfortable recovery experience and more dramatic aesthetic improvements.

During your consultation, Dr. Emer will inform you of what to expect at each stage of your recovery experience based on the treatment site(s) and procedure(s) involved. The specific timeline, symptoms, medications, and restricted activities associated with your recovery from cosmetic surgery will be unique to you.

In addition to deciding where you will recover best and what services you will need, set aside some time to gather post-op recovery essentials, including:

  • Comfortable clothing that you can change into without straining the treatment area
  • Healthy, easy-or-no prep meals and snacks
  • Bottled water and other hydrating beverages, such as sports drinks
  • Tissues, lip balm, lotion, and other daily use products that you will want at-hand in your recovery area
  • Pillows, cushions, and blankets to support approved rest and sleep positions
  • Any devices you may want to use, along with the corresponding chargers
  • Books and magazines of interest

Since you will likely need a week or more of downtime, you will also need to make arrangements, as needed, for things like time off work and assistance with childcare and/or pet care.

PRE-RECOVERY BASICS

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING PLASTIC SURGERY RECOVERY

Most cosmetic surgeries are performed on an outpatient basis and do not require that you begin your recovery with an overnight stay at the surgical facility. However, you will need to remain on-site for one to three hours immediately after your surgery, so we can monitor your condition as the anesthesia wears off.

You will spend this time in a quiet, relaxing recovery room where you can rest until you can be released into the care of a family member, friend, or other trusted individual. You will need someone to stay with you for the initial 24-72 hours of your recovery. An attentive caregiver is your best defense against top you from overexerting yourself, skipping meals, or

Every surgical procedure stresses the body in different ways and to varying degrees, so post-op discomfort is to be expected. Prescribed or over-the-counter medications can be taken, as directed by Dr. Emer, for relief from soreness, tightness, bruising, and/or swelling.

Within a week or two, most patients feel much more comfortable, but you won’t be fully healed for several weeks. You will need to take precautions, as well as proactive steps, as instructed by Dr. Emer, to support the body’s natural repair and renewal processes. You may be prescribed antibiotics to minimize the risk of infection.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO RECOVER FROM COSMETIC SURGERY?

The type of cosmetic surgery performed and the surgical techniques used will initially dictate the parameters of your recovery in terms of downtime, mobility limitations, and activity restrictions. The estimated length of your recovery period will also be based on average recovery times associated with your specific cosmetic procedure.

Recovery from popular plastic surgeries like tummy tucks, breast augmentation, liposuction, facelifts, and brow lifts will take several weeks, though most patients can begin a gradual transition back to their normal routine after a week or two of downtime. In general, the more extensive the procedure, the longer it will take to recover.

When the systems of the body can function at peak efficiency without interruption, recovery takes less time. An expedited recovery is possible with proper attention to best aftercare practices, like keeping the body well-hydrated and well-nourished, incorporating approved low-intensity exercises to encourage healthy blood flow, and regular hyperbaric oxygen therapy and lymphatic massage sessions.

Minimizing your recovery time also involves abstaining from alcohol and smoking and protecting the treatment sites from incurring injuries from friction, force, and/or strain.

IS IT BETTER TO STAY IN A RECOVERY HOUSE AFTER COSMETIC SURGERY?

Ultimately, you are the only person who can make the right choice for your recovery accommodations. Staying in an aftercare residence is ideal for many patients who have undergone a surgical cosmetic procedure, while recovering at home is the best option for others.

Dr. Emer and his team will assist you however possible as you work through the decision-making process. As you explore your options, be sure to evaluate them in terms of:

  • Accessibility
  • Inviting and practical recovery area
  • Tranquility quotient
  • Minimizing your stress level

Some patients choose a minimalist plastic surgery recovery plan, others embrace extravagance, and most create a plan that falls somewhere in between.
