Healthy habits for maintaining your plastic surgery results

Many people go have surgery without realizing that you have to do a lot of things differently for maintaining your plastic surgery results.

The healing part itself requires your body to be strong and healthy to be able to heal.

After any kind of plastic surgery, it is crucial to have a healthy lifestyle to maintain those surgery results.

Here are a few tips to help you make the best of your plastic surgery results.

Healthy Lifestyle for maintaining your plastic surgery results

Diet: A well-balanced diet will take you a long way when it comes to maintaining your plastic surgery results. Especially with surgeries like facial or body contouring, gaining weight after surgery will not give you the desired surgery results. Changing the way you eat before surgery will ensure you have healthy eating habits in place, so staying healthy afterwards will be easier.

 

Exercise: Not everyone is a health nut who loves going to the gym, but blood circulation is important for overall health. After surgery, you can only do light walking to help reduce the swelling. After a month, you can gradually increase your intensity level. You do not have to stick to “traditional” exercise. Anything that keeps you moving and raises your heart rate is good enough to keep you on track.

Hydration: Dehydration can affect the quality of your skin, so make sure to stay hydrated at all times. Water, fruits and vegetables all help hydrate your body, so include those in your diet.

 

 

Total Skincare for maintaining your plastic surgery results

Cleansing: The weather, sun, dust, air quality etc. all affect the quality of your skin. Cleansing your skin well, especially if you wear makeup is essential.

Sunscreen: Apply a good quality sunscreen before stepping outside, even during winter. In Korea, dermatologists really emphasize the usage of sunscreen to keep the skin healthy and young. If you do not like to use sunscreen, then you can use sunglasses, a hat etc, to protect you from the harmful UV rays.

 

 

Good quality products: Invest in quality products for your skin. Have a consistent skin care regime and follow it to nourish your skin. Avoid products with excess chemicals and keep it as natural as possible.

 

Avoid bad habits to maintain your plastic surgery results

Smoking: We all know the bad effects of smoking. Smoking will age your skin. It damages the collagen, reduces the blood flow and…the list is endless (click here to read the whole list). To avoid all of those problems, stay away from smoking and anyone who smokes in front of you.

Drinking: Alcohol dehydrates the skin, disrupts your sleep and can give you pimples or acne. (click here to read the whole list). After the one-month abstinence post-surgery, try to limit your alcohol intake to help preserve your skin health.

 

 

Irregular sleeping patterns: The power of sleep. Your body heals and regenerates as you sleep, so fixing your sleeping pattern will help you heal fast and maintain your plastic surgery results.
