Preparing for Surgery
What you need to know and do prior to your procedure.
Once you have selected a surgeon, he or she will provide you with instructions pertaining to specific medications, vitamins and activities that should be avoided prior to surgery. Further, some surgeons may require that blood work also be performed. Otherwise, preparing for surgery is quite simple. Just follow the short list of instructions provided by your surgeon.

As mentioned in other subsections, you may want to consider growing your hair 1/4" - 1/2" to assist with the
covering of the staples or sutures. Further, a few tanning sessions (avoid burning) will also assist with camouflaging post-op
redness of the recipient area. |
