How will Dr Lim evaluate me for surgery?
Dr Lim will examine your abdomen and consider such factors as the size and shape of your abdominal area, the quality of your skin and the position. You should come to the consultation prepared to discuss your medical history. This will include information about any medical conditions you may have, any medications you are currently taking, any drug allergies you have, other medical treatments you have received and any previous surgery you may have had.
How should I prepare for surgery?
Products that contain Aspirin, vitamin E or Evening Primrose Oil should be avoided for four weeks before surgery. Alcohol and smoking should also be avoided prior to the surgery.
On the day of surgery, the patient should wear comfortable, loose clothing preferably not clothes that need to be pulled over the head and face. No make-up is to be worn on the day of surgery, including nail polish.
