Abdominoplasty Produces Minimal Risk and Maximum Results
Postoperative pain management is always a major factor when considering any type of surgery. Abdominoplasty is an intensive surgical procedure, and it may be performed using either general or local anesthetic. If you have a local anesthesia, you will also be sedated intravenously. After surgery, there is pain involved, which is managed through the use of a pain pump. The pain pump delivers a continuous infusion of bupivicaine (if indicated) pain medication over a period of two to four days based on your postoperative needs.
Gone are the days of lying around for two weeks after surgery, with nurses catering to you. Even after the most intense surgeries, the nurses are getting you out of bed just hours after you wake up. The pain pump not only allows for better pain management, but it aids with healing by allowing you to be mobile quickly after surgery. By reducing the pain, the pain pump allows you to get out of bed and walk to increase blood flow and stimulate your body's natural healing processes.
Using a pain pump is safe and effective and shows minimal risk for narcotic side effects. Please schedule an initial consultation with Dr. Weil today to find out more about abdominoplasty and the pain medications available for managing postoperative pain.
