Preparing for Plastic Surgery for Men
There is no singular way to prepare for plastic surgery. You may be asked to adjust your medications, including any herbal remedies or supplements. In some cases, you may be asked to use surgical soaps or avoid using lotions, creams, or colognes which can cause irritation over the affected area. Details for your specific surgery will be made available at your consultation.
Plastic Surgery for Men Recovery
Your recovery timeframe and the degree of discomfort, bruising, or swelling you may feel will depend on how well your body responds to the treatment. For example, it is advised that you stop smoking and drinking alcohol at least two weeks prior to and one week after your surgery. Ideally, you should stop altogether, as this will help improve your recovery and speed healing. You may also be asked to wear a compression garment, apply special creams, or simply take it easy and let your body heal.
How Much Does Plastic Surgery for Men Cost?
Costs for your plastic surgery operation will vary depending on the extent of surgery or the number of treatments needed to achieve your desired result. Most insurance plans do not cover plastic surgery or specific cosmetic treatments. Dr. Swift accepts payment via cash, check, or credit card, as well as Prosper Healthcare Lending as a financing option.
