Body Procedure

Pre Operative Question Answer

Can a pannilectomy be combined with other body contouring procedures?

After a pannilectomy, it is common to have some restrictions on sitting or lying down for a certain period of time. These restrictions are put in place to ensure optimal healing and minimize complications. Your plastic surgeon will provide you with specific guidelines tailored to your individual case. Typically, you will be advised to avoid sitting or lying directly on your incision site for a few weeks to allow it to heal properly. Instead, you may be instructed to use cushions or pillows to relieve pressure and maintain a more comfortable position. Following these instructions diligently will promote a smoother recovery and enhance your overall surgical outcomes. Your plastic surgeon will closely monitor your progress and provide you with guidance throughout the healing process.
