Post Operative Question Answer

Can I take over-the-counter pain medications to alleviate any discomfort, or do you recommend prescription pain medication?

After a thigh lift, your surgeon may prescribe pain medication to manage any discomfort during the initial recovery period. It is important to follow their guidance and take the prescribed medication as directed. Over-the-counter pain medications may not be sufficient to alleviate post-operative pain, but your surgeon will provide the most appropriate recommendations based on your individual needs.
