1. Ditch Some Weight
It’s never too late to lose a few quick pounds. Patients who are close to their weight goal experience the best results, because their surgeon is better able to identify and contour stubborn problem areas. Think of it as training for your post-liposuction life when you will be eating better and exercising more to maintain your great new look.
2. Prepare Yourself Psychologically
Most people are so busy getting their body prepared that they don’t stop to consider if they are mentally ready. It may sound strange, but take some time to make sure that you are ready to look better. If you have the procedure done but you are not ready to commit to a healthy lifestyle after, you could gain the weight back.
Yahoo News recommends that you ask all of the questions you have before the procedure. No one wants you to walk in on the day of your surgery still wondering whether or not this is the right treatment for you, least of all your surgeon, so don’t hesitate to voice concerns.
3. Build A Lipo Recovery Nest
Most patients hear that they should take a few days off of work, and they wonder what to do with all that time. Some imagine going stir crazy in their house during recovery.
Trust us: Following your procedure, you’ll be ready to relax and recuperate. After liposuction, you may not feel sore and swollen, but you’ll definitely feel tired, so plan ahead and prepare for your recovery.
Grab some healthy snacks, freeze some meals, and gather all of your tools for relaxation—books, computer, magazines, etc. Also, make sure to have plenty of fluids nearby to keep yourself hydrated.
