✔️✔️ Preparation for your tummy tuck surgery begins as soon as you walk through our door! Here is a visual timeline of all the appointments and requirements needed before your surgery day

🔹 Consult Appointment - 2-3 Months prior to surgery
At your consultation, you’ll meet with the doctor to review the procedures of interest, your goals and expectations, as well as discuss any questions you might have. After the consult with the doctor, you’ll meet with one of our cosmetic coordinators to receive your personalized quote and review scheduling availability and financing options

🔹 Pre-Op Test Requirements - 4 weeks prior to surgery
Mammograms, EKGs, and a bloodwork panel could be required tests for your procedure. If you are required to have any pre-testing labs before your surgery, please ensure that all necessary requirements have been received by your doctor at this time

🔹 Pre-Op Appointment - 2 weeks prior to surgery
Expect to meet with a clinic nurse for roughly one hour. They will go over all pre-operative requirements, prescription medications, as well as pre- and post-op recovery education. You will also review your surgery consents and take your pre-op photos at this appointment

🔹 Surgery Prep - 1 day prior to surgery
An OR nurse will call you the day before to go over your 24-hour pre-surgery preparation. They will review your arrival instructions and will be able to assist with any pre-operative medication questions

🔹 Day of Surgery - An OR nurse will greet you upon arrival and escort you, along with your caretaker, to our surgical suite. The OR nurse will review your medical history and brief you and your caretaker on the first weeks’ post-operative instructions. Once completed, you’re all set for surgery!

🙊 Ready for a hard truth? You’ll probably be pretty immobile the first week after your tummy tuck surgery

In order to ensure you obtain the best possible result, there are some rules you’ll have to follow ….

🔹 When can I travel?

Any kind of air travel needs to be delayed until you are 4-6 weeks post-op. The doctor will evaluate your progress and let you know when you are able to fly

You will most likely not feel up to riding in a car for longer than 30 minutes until around 2 weeks after surgery. Past that, any trips longer than one hour, will require you to stop each hour to walk around – this reduces the risk of blood clots!

If you have any plans or events that you will be traveling for, we ask that you notify us in advance of your surgery so we can factor that into the surgery timeline

🔹 When can I exercise?

For the first 2 weeks your primary focus will be getting rest and moving slowly around the house. After 10-14 days, short walks to the mailbox are usually fine but we don’t recommend walking much more than that

After 4 weeks you’ll be able to resume some additional activity and will be made aware of what to avoid in your routine. Most patients can start a normal exercise routine 6 weeks after surgery

🔹 When can I take care of my kids?

It depends on what exactly your role is in your family. The general recommendation is that you do not lift, push, or pull anything heavier than 10lbs until you are 4 weeks post-op

If you are the primary caregiver to one or more toddlers, you should plan on having an extra set of hands to help during the first few weeks of your recovery

If your kids are school aged and you are a glorified chauffeur, give yourself 2 weeks to heal before resuming your driving duties

⏳ Be sure to take your time recovering from your tummy tuck! Follow your doctor’s instructions and be patient with yourself 💙 during this time of healing

🙌🏼 Restore your body confidence with a tummy tuck! Our 42 year old patient underwent massive weight loss but was left with excess skin and fat in her abdomen

🔹 A full or standard abdominoplasty was used to repair the muscle wall and remove the excess skin - creating a smoother, more defined contour

🔹 Her drains were removed after 1 week. She wore her compression garment for 4 weeks post-op, before returning to normal activity

👗 Bonus! Our patient shared that she is enjoying a whole new wardrobe

🌟 Meet Upneeq – the only FDA-approved prescription eyedrop for acquired ptosis (low-lying lids) that lifts your upper eyelids to open your eyes

👀 As seen in: @newbeauty, @realself, @voguemagazine , @harpersbazaarus, & more

Are low-lying eyelids making your eyes look a little tired?

🔹 You may have acquired ptosis! A common medical condition that can develop in adults of all ages when the muscles in the eyelid stretch and weaken – causing the upper lid to drop

🔹 Acquired ptosis can lead to vision impairment in day-to-day functions like reading, driving, computer use, etc

🗓 Schedule a consult with us today to see if this once-daily eye drop is right for you

🍊 Vitamin C’s anti-inflammatory properties help neutralize free radicals that cause oxidative damage – creating a smooth, clear complexion

🔹 Free radicals search for other atoms from which they can “steal” an electron – vitamin C is rich in antioxidants and protects skin cells by “giving” these free radicals an electron, rendering them harmless

🔹 Since it impedes melanin production, vitamin C can fade hyperpigmentation like sunspots, melasma, or even acne scars

🔹 Vitamin C is also well known for boosting collagen production because it is essential for providing structural strength and stabilizing the collagen molecule

Insider Tips:

🔑 Exposures to air, heat, or light may slowly degrade vitamin C, be sure to store in a cool, dark place

🔑 Different formulations of vitamin C can alter its’ strength and effects in the skin – purchase products with a formulation that contain an active form of vitamin C (like L-ascorbic acid) with a strength of 10-20% and a pH lower than 3.5

Drop a 💙 in the comments if you'd like to hear more about our vitamin C options
