Question 1

CAN I WALK AFTER PLASTIC SURGERY?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can walk. In the case of abdominoplasty, you should walk with your torso slightly bent and take slow steps.If you've had liposuction, it’s actually recommended to move around more to support recovery.

Question 2

SHOULD I GO ON A DIET AFTER PLASTIC SURGERY?

Accepted Answer

After plastic surgery, we do not recommend following weight-loss diets.In the first few weeks, the body goes through significant changes and needs proper nutrients to recover.A balanced diet rich in iron and protein is highly recommended.

Question 3

HOW MANY DAYS AFTER SURGERY CAN I DRIVE?

Accepted Answer

Returning to driving depends on the type of surgery and the patient's clinical condition. Automatic cars may be used sooner, but in general, it is recommended to wait 2 to 3 weeks after surgery.

Question 4

WILL LIPOSUCTION MAKE ME LOSE WEIGHT?

Accepted Answer

Plastic surgery is not intended for weight loss, although some patients may lose weight as a result of improved eating habits and increased metabolism during the healing process. The main goal is body contouring and reshaping.

Question 5

WHEN CAN I LIFT MY CHILDREN AND GO BACK TO THE GYM?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the type of surgery. The most limiting procedures are breast surgery and abdominoplasty. Lifting small children (up to around 10 kg / 22 lbs) is usually allowed after 40 days, while lifting heavier children is recommended only after 90 days—similar to the timeline for returning to physical activity. Light walking can typically begin after 30 days, and weight training after 90 days.

Question 6

WHEN WILL THE BRUISING GO AWAY?

Accepted Answer

It’s common for patients to be concerned about bruising (purple discoloration of the skin), but it typically fades within 3 to 4 weeks.

Question 7

CAN I GET LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE WHILE ON MY PERIOD?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can! There’s no problem at all. In fact, it even helps reduce swelling (edema)

Question 8

CAN I DYE MY HAIR AFTER SURGERY?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can dye your hair. The main recommendation is to be mindful of your body position at the salon, especially when leaning back at the sink or sitting in a chair for an extended period. Hair dye does not interfere with surgical recovery.

Question 9

CAN I TAKE HERBAL TEAS OR NATURAL HEALING REMEDIES BEFORE OR AFTER SURGERY? WHAT ABOUT APPLYING HOMEMADE CREAMS?

Accepted Answer

Pacientes de todas as idades que buscam uma recuperação cirúrgica mais rápida, segura e eficaz, ou que desejam melhorar o contorno corporal, prevenir e tratar edemas, fibroses e outras intercorrências pós-operatórias.

Question 10

HOW LONG WILL I NEED TO WEAR THE COMPRESSION GARMENT?

Accepted Answer

The use of compression garments varies depending on the type of surgery, the healing process of each patient, and how disciplined the patient is during the initial recovery. We often say that your own body will let you know when it’s time to stop wearing the garment. If it's removed too early, the skin may feel uncomfortable and shift in shape, potentially leading to irregularities or contour deformities. On average, compression garments are worn for 60 to 90 days.
