Baltimore, MD, July 6, 2017 - Seeing a plastic surgeon in Baltimore for a tummy tuck is an excellent way to get rid of loose skin following weight loss or to make some final touch-ups on the results of diet and exercise. Aside from choosing the right surgeon, another one of the most important aspects of having a successful tummy tuck is recovering properly.
It is important to stay as comfortable as possible following a tummy tuck in Baltimore. This includes during trips to the bathroom. Since most toilets have a low seat that is uncomfortable for recent tummy tuck patients, a toilet seat booster is recommended to avoid unnecessary squatting.
Additionally, sitting and napping in a recliner is very useful during recovery. Not only does it keep the patient comfortable, it also mimics the position the patient was in during the tummy tuck and is the preferred way for patients in recovery to sleep. Similarly, staying bent at the waist is more comfortable so walking with a cane or walker immediately after the procedure is recommended.
The drain and binder can cause some discomfort so placing gauze near the drain and between the hip bone and binder adds to the comfort. Compression shorts also keep the binder in place, adding to overall comfort, but it is necessary to cut a hole in them for the drain.
