Following post-operative instructions: Dr. Niessen will provide you with specific post-operative instructions unique to your procedure.  He’ll call you in the evening after your surgery to make sure you’re doing well. If you have questions, he’ll answer them.

Following post-op instructions means you’ll be comfortable.  His attention means your healing is optimized and the risk of complications is minimized. Dr. Niessen will follow you along after your procedure(s) to ensure your journey is optimal.

Adopting a healthy lifestyle is crucial for maintaining the results of your cosmetic surgery. Healthy lifestyle means a balanced diet, appropriate exercise and adequate sleep.

Exposure to the sun’s harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays can accelerate aging and compromise your surgical result.  It’s important to wear sunscreen every day, even if it’s cloudy.

Avoid smoking and excessive alcohol consumption: Smoking impairs healing and negatively affects aesthetic outcome.  It restricts blood flow and oxygen delivery to the surgical site.  It’s best to avoid or reduce smoking and to limit alcohol intake to promote optimal healing and maintain the longevity of your cosmetic surgery improvements.

Be sure to keep up with your post procedure visits with Dr. Niessen. He’ll monitor your healing and make sure to alleviate your concerns.  If you have a complication, he’ll address it promptly.  He’ll provide guidance and help to help maintain your desired results over time.
