How To Prevent Infection After Abdominoplasty?
Before the surgery remove all hair from
the surgical area. This should be done with clippers rather
than a razor. Shower with antiseptic soap the week before
and the night before surgery. After the surgery take the
antibiotics exactly as directed by your surgeon. Ask your
surgeon for what type of bandages to use, what antibiotic
ointments to apply, how to clean the wound and how often to
change the bandages. Watch for signs of infection including
fever, chills and sweats. Also look at the wound area for
redness or pus drainage at the wound area. Contact your
surgeon immediately at the first signs of infection.
