The recovery period after surgery can leave you feeling fragile and not at your best while your body heals from invasive surgical procedures. The estheticians at Formah offer gentle, compassionate post-op care that will help you recover and feel like your old self again — or even better! Our Post-Surgery Treatment, sometimes combined with other treatments, will help minimize surgery complications, and you will experience significant pain relief right away.
What is post-surgery cosmetic treatment?
Aesthetic treatments after plastic surgery have a very important relationship with the patient’s recovery. Above all, in the postoperative period of certain procedures, aesthetic treatments are aimed at relieving pain, avoiding complications and promoting healing of tissues.
The importance of aesthetic treatments after surgery:
Post-surgical aesthetic treatments are a very important part of the process to obtain optimal results and a smooth recovery from plastic surgery. After the procedure, it is essential to avoid factors that can cause complications.
In some plastic surgeries, skin dislocation and swelling may occur. This swelling must be properly addressed so that there are no skin irregularities, nodules or even fibrosis (internal scarring that can be prominent).
The best way to treat this swelling is through aesthetic techniques, which allows for better results – hence the importance of following all medical recommendations during the postoperative period.
How does Formah’s post-surgical treatment work?
With the understanding that this is an aesthetic procedure and that the main objective is to improve and aid the work that was performed by a doctor, we work through a protocol done in a localized manner. Within this protocol, we use ultrasound equipment and localized lymphatic drainage to direct the fluids, help contour the region, and mobilize the tissues so that the aesthetic result is even better. This exclusive formah technique has several benefits, such as pain relief, anti-inflammatory and anti-edematous action, helping to break fibrosis accumulated in the dermal connective tissue (cellular micro massage).
Now let’s talk about the benefits and understand the importance of this process:
Rehabilitation is one of the most important parts of the entire surgical process. Improved oxygenation and circulation, increased muscle tone, skin hydration and nutrition, decreased post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, healing and decreased pain are just some of the functions of postoperative aesthetic procedures. The role of a professional is to complement the plastic surgery using aesthetic techniques and resources to speed up the recovery process.
Recommendations:
We consider the recovery period to be extremely essential for the desired results. Therefore, we believe that the success of plastic surgery is closely correlated to the care that the patient receives while recovering from surgery. We recommend that the sessions start 7 to 15 days after surgery. This will vary based on an evaluation with our estheticians and recommendations from your doctor. If drains were placed by the physician, we recommend that the aesthetic procedure be started after these drains are removed, thus enabling a better use of the benefits of the ultrasound equipment and the manual techniques that are applied.
When can I have an assessment?
The evaluation or the free consultation is to determine the number of sessions and when the patient can start the treatment. In some cases, you can start as soon as one week post-op. The consultation is very important, as each surgery is different and involves different processes and techniques used by the doctor to reach a desired goal with the patient.
General post-operative care:
Adequate food – The body needs nutrients and energy to be able to resume its normal functioning. Rest – After surgery, rest is recommended to avoid physical discomfort as to not disturb any stitches and scarring in the operated region. Personal care – Maintaining asepsis in the postoperative period is the most important measure for a good recovery.
- Avoid sun exposure while you are bruised and waiting for medical release
- Drink lots of water to improve retention and help the body flush out toxins
How long does it take to notice the results?
Results can be noticed after the first session; in addition to pain relief and a reduction in swelling which can be essential for tissue recovery. You will also notice improvement in the contour of the body. However, the definitive result of the surgery can vary greatly from person to person and the degree of aggression in the process of each surgery.
Recommended number of sessions:
- For optimal results, we recommend between 6 to 12 sessions. It can be less or more, according to the consultation made by a qualified professional.
- It is possible that alternative treatments may be suggested according to the current status of the patient.
Important: *Our treatments are 100% aesthetic. Any complications need to be handled by the doctor who performed the surgery, and in special cases we need a written recommendation. *Before beginning post-surgery treatment, you should consult with your doctor and confirm whether you have any special restrictions that we need to be aware of.
