Plastic Surgery Before and After

Once you have made the decision to have plastic surgery there are some things that you should be prepared for, this includes pre-operative consultation, preparation as well as post-operative recovery expectations.

Before you undergo surgery be sure that all of your questions have been answered either by other people you know who have gone through the same procedure or by your surgeon so that you can feel confident before, during and after your procedure.

Make sure you have booked at least a week off work. Everyone heals differently but a week should allow you a good amount of time to heal and become accustomed to your transformation.

Ensure that you eat healthily and keep up an moderate exercise regime before your surgery. A diet relatively free of toxins and high in fiber and vitamins is always a good idea to ensure that your body is in shape and able to withstand the trauma of surgery. The healthier you are the faster you will recover.

After surgery you should allow yourself time to get used to your transformation. Once the swelling goes down you will probably be thrilled by the results of your surgery, but don't think that you will look stunning immediately following your surgery.

Make sure that you don't have any obligations immediately following your surgery. If you have children explain to them that you will be out of commission while you heal and make sure that you have someone around to help you out in the days immediately following surgery.

If you were self-conscious and embarrassed by your body before surgery you can definitely expect to have a refurbished sense of self-esteem once you see the results of your surgery. Many people become more outgoing and personable after surgery because of the confidence they gain from their transformation.

The most important thing to remember before and after surgery is that plastic surgery is a personal decision you have made for yourself, not for the people around you. Embrace your decision and the newfound confidence you gain.
