Managing a Patient Post Cosmetic Surgery – LymphaTouch Case Study

 

 

 
Presented by Emma Gibson - Aesthetic Nurse Practitioner at ASthetics Health

 


 

 
Patient Background
34-year-old female, presented to us 2/52 post Brazilian Butt Lift and Abdominal Plasty Revision, after getting off the plane she contacted us.
No aftercare received to date.
Upon examination, noticed patient visibly swollen, skin mottled in appearance, difficulty mobilising, in discomfort, unable to get comfortable when lying down, sleep deprived.
We were really concerned about the appearance of her wound, at real risk of the skin breaking down/wound dehiscence - leading to an increased risk of worsening scarring to her wounds.
