Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Li Fengyong
Before undergoing buttock liposuction surgery, patients must undergo a thorough medical examination and discontinue the use of anti-inflammatory drugs, anticoagulants, and hormonal medications. Additionally, patients must strictly avoid smoking and alcohol consumption for at least two weeks prior to the surgery to ensure its smooth progression. After the buttock liposuction procedure, patients should strictly follow their doctor's instructions, including daily dressing changes, taking oral antibiotics preventively, and carefully performing postoperative care to prevent bacterial contamination and potential infection.
