Plastic Surgery Q&A Episode 296 |Are lymphatic drainage massages important after a tummy tuck and more...

 I will talk about:

-After dressings/stitches have been removed what is the best cream/silicone gel to use for the scar? Is mepore tape sufficient?

-Are lymphatic drainage massages important after a tummy tuck?

-When can you shower after a tummy tuck, do you wait until all dressings are removed?

-When can you sleep on your sides after a tummy tuck?

-I had Polytech under muscle implants 275cc 4 months ago. The have migrated to my armpits and will need further surgery. If I have Polytech implants placed over the muscle will this still prevent capsular contracture? My original was 295cc but was not available should I go to next size up?.....and anything else that crops up.
