●  Please stop taking drugs that affect blood coagulation, such as aspirin, as well as healthy food or Chinese herbal medicines for promoting blood circulation.
●  Do not wear makeup and skin care products, do not bring valuables, and remove phototherapy nails and contact lenses on the day of surgery.

●  Wear loose, comfortable clothing with a front button to facilitate wearing and taking off after surgery.


Postoperative Care

●  Mild swelling and pain at the incision site within 48 hours after surgery are normal.
●  Don't lift heavy objects for the first two weeks after surgery. No heavy lifting, straining, or strenuous activity, such as sports, riding motorcycles, etc., for at least 2 weeks to avoid bleeding at the surgical site and resulting in hematoma.
●  Take the medicine on time and completely according to the doctor's advice to avoid wound infection.
●  Do not remove the adhesive tape, gauze, and chest strap. After the first visit, the nursing staff will teach you how to change the wound dressing.
●  Do not take a bath for 2 weeks to avoid the chance of increasing blood circulation and causing hematoma.
●  Avoid smoking, drinking, spicy food, shellfish, and dietary supplements, such as ginseng chicken and sesame oil chicken for at least 2 weeks.
