Avant de partir — préparation
Chirurgie plastique
- Have any blood tests and health checks your surgeon asks for well before travel
- Stop smoking several weeks ahead; it badly affects healing and scars
- Pause blood thinners and certain supplements only on your surgeon's advice
- Buy the compression garments your clinic recommends in the right size
- Arrange help at home or a carer for the first week after surgery
- Plan a longer stay and delay your flight to lower the clot risk
- Prepare loose, front-opening clothes that are easy to put on
