Pain Management in Plastic Surgery: Premium Care Plastic Surgery Has You Covered
Key Considerations for a Successful Plastic Surgery Journey – Prepare with Confidence
Plastic surgery is a significant decision, and one of the most common concerns our patients have is the post-operative pain. At Premium Care Plastic Surgery, we understand this concern and are dedicated to making your experience as comfortable as possible. Here’s how we approach pain management in our surgeries.
Pain is Part of Plastic Surgery
During any surgical procedure, trauma inevitably causes inflammation and pain. This is a normal and expected aspect of plastic surgery. However, the success of plastic surgery not only lies in the aesthetic results but also in effectively controlling and minimizing post-operative pain.
Local Anesthesia in the Operating Room
Our approach to pain management starts in the operating room. We use local anesthesia to ensure you remain comfortable throughout the entire procedure. By the time the surgery is complete, you will wake up in the recovery room feeling adequately comfortable.
Pain Control in Recovery
In the recovery room, our team of specialists will monitor your pain levels and provide the necessary treatment to keep you comfortable. We won’t let you leave the hospital until you feel good and are ready to go home.
Multimodal Pain Management Approach
Once at home, we continue with a pain management plan called multimodal pain control. This approach includes a combination of medications that work together to reduce inflammation, calm nerves, and effectively manage pain. We use anti-inflammatories for pain and swelling, nerve-modulating agents to make nerves less receptive to pain, and a mild narcotic like hydrocodone, taken as needed.
Our Commitment to You
Our goal is for you to feel sore, but never in severe pain. Our typical formula works well for almost all our patients, but if you ever need adjustments, we are available 24/7 to ensure you remain comfortable.
At Premium Care Plastic Surgery, we are committed to your well-being from the moment you enter our center until your full recovery.
