I'm having a Lower Body Lift, will a low sodium diet speed the drainage process?

Yes, I completely agree with you.  Sodium in your diet is going to force your body to hold onto even more water than it typically would postoperatively.  I advise all of my patients, but especially Body Lift patients to limit their salt intake.  That means no Chinese food, limited soy sauce, no McDonalds (you shouldn't have that anyway), etc.  I think you will find it really does make a big difference in your recovery.Good Luck to you!

After a 360 circumferential lower body lift, it is essential that you eat approximately 100 grams of protein daily. Typically, the best way to achieve this is with protein drinks or protein shakes. Most proteins drinks have minimal sodium.   If you are able to eat on top of this, that's just extra points for you.After massive weight loss, most of my patients are on a low sodium diet anyway.  Therefore, regardless whether you are having a 360 circumferential lower body lift, I would suggest you adhere to a low salt diet.  

Body lifts are big surgeries that require many and frequent follow ups in my experience, I would plan on being near your surgeon for many weeks after surgery
