Preparing for your surgery

New York plastic surgeon Dr. Zevon will give you specific instructions on how to prepare for ultrasonic liposuction surgery, including guidelines on eating and drinking, smoking, and taking or avoiding vitamins, iron tablets and certain medications. If you develop a cold or an infection of any kind, especially a skin infection, your procedure may have to be postponed.

While you are making preparations, be sure to arrange for someone to drive you home after your ultrasonic liposuction surgery and, if needed, to help you out for a day or two.
