To ensure a smooth surgical procedure, patients should follow the suggestions below:

1. Understand the surgical process in detail, including the type of anesthesia, the type of implant, and the incision location.

2. Dietary adjustment: Avoid spicy, greasy, and irritating foods before surgery, and maintain a light diet to help the body adjust to its optimal condition.

3. Avoid special periods: periods such as menstruation, pregnancy, and lactation are considered special periods when the body's resistance is relatively weak; breast augmentation surgery is not recommended during these times.

4. Prepare comfortable clothing and necessary daily necessities for resting at home after the surgery.
