Cosmetic Surgeon has revolutionized recovery processes
At the Parker Center for Plastic Surgery in New Jersey America, Dr. Parker and his staff know that recovery is often the most difficult part of plastic surgery.
With this in mind he formulated his Rapid Recovery Program. His approach to recovery has patients out of the facility usually within an hour after the procedure and feeling like themselves shortly afterwards.
There are some basic principles behind his program that allows patients to recover so quickly
One of the major components is teamwork. Dr. Parker has worked with his team of anesthesiologists for over twenty years and they are here every day assisting with surgeries. As a team, we know what to expect from each other allowing our procedures to be performed seamlessly.
The basics components of the Rapid Recovery Program include specially designed pre and post-operative medications, short-acting anesthesia medications which leave the body quickly, allowing the patient to emerge from anesthesia quicker without undesirable side effects. Advanced a traumatic surgical techniques employed by Dr. Parker use smaller incisions and state-of-the-art equipment as well as his highly trained staff aid in the process too. Post-operative pain management and lymphatic massage are the final components.
Because cosmetic procedures involve the skin and underlying subcutaneous tissue only, there's no need to put the patient under as deeply as with other types of surgeries. This means that our patients emerge more quickly and don't have that negative reaction most people associate with anesthesia. If there is any downside to the Rapid Recovery Program, it is that some patients may overdo things too soon because they feel so wonderful. They sometimes forget they just had surgery. Many of my patients are a little skeptical about massage so soon after surgery. They worry it may hurt or damage the surgical site
But, I always have my eyes and ears open for new and better ways to treat my patients and recover them rapidly after surgery.
