Post-Operative Care Frequently Asked Questions
Expert answers to common questions about surgical recovery and post-op care in Owerri
When should I start post-op care after surgery?
We recommend starting 24-48 hours after surgery with gentle Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD). Early intervention reduces swelling, prevents fibrosis, and accelerates healing. For tummy tucks and BBLs, optimal timing is within the first 3 days post-op.
What is Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)?
MLD is a gentle, specialized massage technique that stimulates the lymphatic system to remove excess fluid, reduce swelling, and eliminate toxins. It’s crucial for post-surgical recovery as it helps drain accumulated fluids from surgical sites, reducing pressure and pain.
Will post-op care be painful?
No, MLD is gentle and relaxing. Our therapists use light pressure that shouldn’t cause pain. In fact, most clients report immediate relief from pressure and discomfort. We adjust pressure based on your comfort level and surgical sensitivity.
How many sessions will I need?
Most clients need 6-12 sessions depending on the procedure: Tummy tucks (8-10), BBL (10-12), Liposuction (6-8). We create personalized plans during your assessment. Consistency is key for optimal results.
Can post-op care prevent complications?
Yes! Professional post-op care significantly reduces risks of seromas, hematomas, fibrosis, and poor scarring. MLD helps prevent fluid buildup that can lead to infections or revision surgeries. Early intervention is crucial for complication prevention.
Do you work with surgical drains?
Yes, our therapists are trained to work safely around surgical drains and incisions. We follow strict hygiene protocols and coordinate with your surgeon if needed. MLD can actually help reduce drain output and facilitate earlier drain removal.
What if I need emergency post-op care?
We offer emergency post-op assessments for sudden swelling, increased pain, or suspected complications. Call +2349038929664 for urgent support. Our therapists can assess and recommend whether you need medical attention or therapeutic intervention.
