Preparing for gynecomastia surgery is crucial for ensuring a smooth procedure and a quick recovery. Whether you are anxious about the process or simply want to make sure you are fully prepared, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know.
Step 1: Schedule a Consultation with Dr. Shivam Dang
✅ Why It’s Important:
Your first step is to meet with an experienced surgeon who can evaluate your condition, explain the procedure, and help you set realistic expectations.
✅ What to Expect:
- A thorough physical examination
- Discussion of your medical history
- Clarification of any doubts or questions
Step 2: Complete Pre-Surgical Tests
✅ Why It’s Important:
Pre-surgical tests ensure you are in good health for the procedure. This may include:
- Blood tests
- ECG (for patients over 40)
- Chest X-ray (if required)
✅ Tip: Make sure to inform Dr. Shivam Dang about any existing medical conditions or allergies.
Step 3: Stop Smoking and Avoid Alcohol
✅ Why It’s Important:
Smoking and alcohol can affect healing and increase surgical risks. Quitting at least 2-3 weeks before surgery is strongly recommended.
✅ Tip: Use this period to adopt a healthier lifestyle for a faster recovery.
Step 4: Adjust Medications (If Required)
✅ Why It’s Important:
Certain medications, such as blood thinners or anti-inflammatory drugs, can increase bleeding during surgery. Dr. Shivam Dang will guide you on which medications to stop.
✅ Common Medications to Avoid:
- Aspirin
- Ibuprofen
- Herbal supplements (like ginkgo or fish oil)
Step 5: Arrange for Post-Surgery Care
✅ Why It’s Important:
Having someone to drive you home and assist you for the first 24-48 hours after surgery is essential.
✅ Tip: Prepare your home with comfortable pillows, prescribed medications, and easy-to-wear clothing.
Step 6: Follow Fasting Instructions
✅ Why It’s Important:
If your surgery is done under general anesthesia, you will need to fast for 8 hours before the procedure.
✅ Tip: Follow the instructions given by Dr. Shivam Dang carefully.
Step 7: Wear Comfortable Clothing
