Procedure & Recovery
Because each person will need a different mix of surgical procedures, the technique used and the recovery time required will vary. Dr. Popowich will be sure to take the time to explain surgical details and ensure that you have a complete understanding of what to expect following the procedures.
In some cases, multiple procedures may be combined into a single surgical session to consolidate recovery time. In other cases, particularly when several extensive procedures are needed, the surgeries will need to be "staged" over a period of several months. Dr. Popowich does this to maximize patient safety and comfort during recovery. Note that all patients must achieve and maintain a stable weight before undergoing a contouring procedure.
No matter which procedures are performed, exercising and leading a healthy lifestyle will help to ensure that you can enjoy the results of your post bariatric surgery for a long time to come.
