Schedule Your Menopause Makeover Consultation
During your consultation, Dr. Antimarino will walk you through a series of questions to determine your concerns, goals and expectations. Dr. Antimarino will discuss with you any medical conditions you may have or treatments you are going through, what medications you may be taking, and any previous surgeries. Be prepared to discuss outcomes of a menopause makeover procedure and to have the doctor take photos for a more accurate evaluation.
Pre-Op Care
Depending upon a patient’s age and medical condition there may be preoperative laboratory testing required. This will need to be completed within 2-4 weeks of surgery and is typically covered by the patient’s insurance. Patients are asked to maintain their usual activity level and body weight from the time of consultation to their surgical date. Patients are required to stop smoking, vaping, and the use of nicotine patches, gum and marijuana one month prior to surgery and a minimum of one month post surgery. Patients are also required to stop using weight loss medications 2 weeks prior to their surgery. Surgery may be canceled if guidelines are not followed.

MONROEVILLE PATIENT
Surgery & Post-Op Care
A menopause makeover typically includes rejuvenation procedures related to face, eyelids, breasts and abdominal wall. Typically, facial and eyelid rejuvenation includes a facelift, possible neck lift, or eyelid lifts. Common procedures for breast and abdominal wall rejuvenation include breast augmentation, breast lift, liposuction of the abdominal wall and tummy tucks. These surgeries are performed at an accredited surgery center as an outpatient procedure.
Each of these procedures will have appropriate dressing and possible drains that will need to be removed or changed at the first post operative visit. Detailed instructions are given to each patient and caregiver after surgery as to how to care for the dressings and drains when they are discharged from the surgery center. Further instructions are given at each postoperative appointment so it is very important that patients show up for their scheduled appointments. Typically, a patient may return to exercise in 3-4 weeks and return to work can vary depending upon the procedure (s), and type of work involved. Patients are advised throughout the process to avoid smoking, vaping, and the use of nicotine or marijuana as these will negatively affect post operative healing and can lead to open wounds and poor scarring.
