What to Expect
Step 1: Initial Consultation
Step 2: Surgeon Evaluation
Step 3: Preparing for Surgery
Step 4: Surgery Day
Step 5: Post-Op Care
Step 1: Initial Consultation
Let’s kick off your #madeinmcs plastic surgery journey! Our patient coordinators are here to guide you. They’ll help with paperwork, choosing the right surgeon, and even assist remotely if needed. Whether you’re close by or far away, they’ll make sure you’re all set with forms, clear instructions, and a way to send photos to your surgeon. If you’re ready to begin or have questions, feel free to reach out to us at (305) 264 – 9636 or fill in our Contact Form. Our team is excited to assist you on this exciting journey.
Step 2: Surgeon Evaluation
Following your consultations with our coordinators, you will embark on a vital stage where your aspirations align with the specialized knowledge of your chosen surgeon. This isn’t just a conversation; it’s a collaborative session where you will discuss your objectives, medical history, and craft a comprehensive plan together. We will openly and candidly address topics such as anesthesia, recovery, and any potential challenges that may arise during your journey.
Step 3: Preparing for Surgery
Now that you’re preparing for surgery, our surgery coordinators step in. They’ll make sure everything is perfectly aligned. From scheduling the right time for your procedure to collecting essential forms, they’ll guide you. You’ll also get the full details on pre-op tests like blood work and scans, and financial details will be covered too.
Step 4: Surgery Day
Your big day is here, and we’re as excited as you! To keep things safe, we’ll ask you to skip dinner and drinks the night before – a precaution for the anesthesia. On surgery day, come in early for a thorough prep. Our skilled surgeon and team will take over from there. After surgery, our attentive medical staff will take care of you. When you’re ready, you’ll head home with a support person for a comfortable recovery.
Step 5: Post-Op Care
Once the surgery lights dim, your journey to recovery begins. Follow our easy care instructions closely for optimal healing. Listen to your surgeon’s advice about changing bandages, taking care of incisions, and managing any discomfort. Don’t skip those follow-up appointments – they’re important to track your progress. Keep in mind, different procedures have different recovery timelines. Your surgeon’s expertise will guide you towards successful healing and achieving the results you desire.
Checklist
- Follow medical advice closely and prepare a proper rest area beforehand.
- No smoking a month before and after surgery.
- Avoid taking anticoagulant medications as well as consuming herbal supplements before and after surgery.
- We are an Out-Patient Clinic: meaning that none of our procedures require a hospital stay; patients can go home once they wake from anesthesia.
- Wear your surgical compression garment as indicated by your surgeon.
- Swelling and discomfort are normal after surgery but will gradually subside. Patients can typically resume daily activities after 15 days.
