Health Education/Post-operative Precautions for Autologous Fat Facial Sculpting (Fat Replenishment) Surgery
[Post-operative instruction for autologous fat grafting facial sculpting (fat replacement) surgery]
- Do not rub your face vigorously when washing it for a week after the surgery. Instead, pat it gently and keep the wound area as dry as possible.
- After the procedure, there may be slight swelling or bruising on the face, which usually disappears within two to four weeks. If there is any abnormal pain, persistent redness and swelling, or abnormal discharge after one week, please return to the clinic for examination as soon as possible.
- Do not massage, undergo facial laser treatment, or sleep on your stomach for one month after the procedure.
- Do not soak in hot springs, hydrotherapy or spas, or engage in strenuous exercise within two months after the surgery.
- Avoid spicy foods and staying up late. Do not smoke for three months, as smoking will cause poor blood circulation and thus affect fat survival rate.
- Please maintain a normal diet for the first three months after surgery. Do not diet to lose weight, as this may affect the survival rate of fat cells.
▍Instructions for medications included in the postoperative care kit:
The nursing kit contains three medications: an anti-inflammatory drug, a painkiller, and a stomach medicine. Please take them according to the instructions on the medication card, including the dosage, timing, and administration.
Please take all the anti-inflammatory medication as prescribed.
