Does the bone grinding operation in Guangzhou Overseas Chinese Hospital require hospitalization? Expert authoritative answer
Bone grinding surgery, also known as craniofacial plastic surgery, is a kind of surgery to adjust the shape of the skull and facial bones. In Guangzhou Overseas Chinese Hospital, bone grinding is a very common and mature plastic surgery project. However, many people have doubts about whether this operation requires hospitalization. Next, we will give detailed answers from the aspects of preoperative preparation, surgical process, postoperative recovery and hospitalization guidance.
Preoperative preparation
Before bone grinding surgery, a series of preoperative assessments and preparations are usually carried out. First, the patient needs to have a comprehensive physical examination and relevant laboratory tests to ensure that they are in good health and have no obvious diseases. In addition, CT scanning, X-ray and three-dimensional photography of bones are also essential. These examinations can help doctors identify bone defects and design the best surgical plan.
In the preoperative consultation, the doctor will explain the risks and contraindications of the operation in detail, and jointly determine the goals and expected effects of the operation with the patient. If the patient has passed all preoperative preparations and has no other diseases requiring hospitalization, bone grinding surgery can usually be performed in outpatient mode.
Operation process
The bone grinding operation is generally performed by an experienced plastic surgeon. Before surgery, patients will receive local or general anesthesia to ensure the comfort and safety of the surgical process. According to individual conditions and operation plan, doctors will perform corresponding bone cutting, tissue adjustment, implants and other operations to achieve the desired effect.
The operation time is generally longer, usually between 3 hours and 6 hours, depending on the complexity of the operation. After the operation, the patient will be observed and nursed in the recovery room for a period of time, and can be discharged after ensuring the stability of the body.
Postoperative recovery
The recovery period after operation varies from individual to individual. In the first few days after the operation, the patient may feel mild pain and swelling, but these symptoms will gradually reduce. The doctor will prescribe corresponding analgesics and detumescence drugs to help patients relieve discomfort.
In order to speed up recovery and protect the operation area, patients need to follow the doctor's advice, such as reasonable diet, proper head posture and avoiding strenuous exercise. Generally speaking, within 1 to 2 weeks after surgery, patients can resume their normal diet and daily life, but they need to avoid strenuous activities and high-intensity exercise to prevent the surgery area from being impacted.
Within a few months after the operation, the patient needs to be revisited regularly, and the doctor will further evaluate and adjust according to the recovery and operation effect. At this stage, most patients can resume normal social and work activities, and gradually enjoy the beauty and confidence brought by the surgery.
Inpatient guidance
The bone grinding operation in Guangzhou Overseas Chinese Hospital usually does not require hospitalization, because it is a relatively small operation and the recovery period is relatively short. Most patients can go home and continue to recover after a short period of hospital observation after surgery. However, some special circumstances may require hospitalization, such as high surgical complexity, older patients or other long-term diseases.
Whether hospitalization is required or not, the doctors and nurses of Guangzhou Overseas Chinese Hospital will provide detailed hospitalization guidance and postoperative nursing suggestions. Patients can carry out corresponding rehabilitation training and nursing measures according to the doctor's suggestions to ensure the best maintenance of the surgical effect.
