Hydration
Staying hydrated is key for your overall health and will support your body through the recovery process post Vaser Liposuction. Before and after your surgery, it is recommended you consume at least two litres of water every day. As the fluid and fat is removed from your body, the lympathic system needs water to help with recovery.
Alcohol and Smoking
It’s advisable to quit smoking and avoid alcohol for at least two weeks before and after your Vaser Liposuction procedure as they can interfere with healing and overall results.
Skin Preparation
Keeping your skin clean and healthy in the area to be treated will minimize infection risks. Your surgeon may recommend specific skin preparation routines.

Usually Vaser Liposution allows for a discharge on the same day after a few hours of recovery and being cleared by the surgeon. Having a towel to protect the interior of your car on your journey home is advised. We highly recommend having someone to drive you or take your home.
Post-Procedure Care Arrangements

The first two to five days require you to be resting well. You will be able to perform small chores around the house, but bear in mind that you may be leaking and feel some discomfort.
