Some of the links listed below are to the American Plastic Surgery Society.
Please note the following:
- Safety is paramount, so patients must be in good general health, and
preferably Non Smokers - more so for some procedures
than others.
- Pictures emailed to me as small jpeg files are invaluable in assessing
the degree of the "problem", and for surgical planning and
quoting.
- Avoid: All medication containing aspirin, anti-inflammatories
or Arnica for at least 2 weeks prior to any surgery - these
all interfere with blood clotting.
- Most operations are performed under deep IV sedation by a certified anaesthetist,
as day cases. The exception to this is a full tummy tuck, full rhinoplasty,
and large volume liposuction, which usually require an overnight stay,
or longer.
- Plan your trip sensibly: You need to be in Cape Town for at least 2-3
days prior to any surgery, and up to 3 weeks (average of 10 days) post
op, depending on the procedure.
- Feel free to email any
queries you may still have.
