What to arrange in advance:
- Post operatively you may need to limit your range of motion in the area of the surgery to minimize risk of stretching the scar or causing stitches to pop out. Please plan accordingly.
- After your surgery, you will need to change and dress the site daily. Make arrangements so that you can have help if it is a difficult to reach area.
- If your wound requires sutures, then you will need to return to our office for suture removal 5-14 days later depending on the body location. Plan your surgery at a time where you can return back to the office in the recommended amount of time. Make your suture removal appointment with the front desk on the day of your surgery.
- There may be lab fees associated with your surgery. An outside laboratory, not GlamDerm bills these fees. Please check with your insurance company in advance of your surgery to ask if lab fees are covered.
