What type of diet should I follow after the surgery?

In general you should have a soft diet, taking into account the following:

  • Liquids ingest shall be increased (in liposuctions we recommend to take Gatorade as it helps you to recover potassium levels)
  • Avoid acids on the first days
  • Do not drink dairy products the first two days
  • Avoid fats
  • Increase your food consumption rich in iron such as liver, spleen, blackberry and strawberry, sugar beet and spinach.
  • It is important to eat every 3 hours even small portions. Remember this is the only way you shall recover the energy lost.
