Prepare for Reconstructive Surgery–Healthy Weight

Posted on November 2, 2017 by Deb Hart

Preparation for Reconstructive Surgery

Take steps ahead of time to insure that your nutritional status is optimal and your body is in the best shape possible for your upcoming surgery. You’ll be rewarded with a faster healing time, less risk of infection, and potentially more pleasing results.

  • Your weight should be close to your personal goal and stable. If you lose a significant amount of weight after reconstructive surgery, the results will not be as firm.
