I would avoid very chewy foods and opt for softer foods and elastic wrap for at least five days after your chin and neck liposuction. Raffy Karamanoukian, Los Angeles
I would recommend following the specific guidelines of your surgeon, as they may have a specific protocol they would like you to follow. Your diet will not be very restricted following the initial recovery period. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck with your procedure.
In most cases, you should be able to eat a normal diet after liposuction of the chin. Your particular surgeon may have specific guidelines for this procedure though, so it's best to check with him or her.
There are no restrictions on your diet aftersubmental Smartlipo. It would be in your best interest to continue with healthyeating habits as well as an all-around healthy lifestyle.
The answer to part of that question will be if you have a local or general anesthesia, and how much pain medication you take. Normally after general anesthesia you will want to have comfort/carb food such as mashed potatoes, oatmeal, etc. This helps with the effects of anesthesia on your tummy, and will make your pain medication easier to tolerate. Mild and soft food will be more appealing to you in most cases after a surgery. You will not, however have to be on a liquid diet after chin liposuction. Liposuction of the chin is most often very easily tolerated by most patients, and I find that most of my patients are back to their normal routine and diet within just a few days. You will, however, want to make sure to avoid any activity that would raise your blood pressure for several weeks while you are healing, so that you don’t bruise any more than is necessary.
