Colorado Cosmetic Surgeons Provides Clients With The Latest Technology In Pain Relief For Post-Surgical Recovery
In a recent Harris Interactive nationwide survey, over 47% of women surveyed stated they had a fear of post-operative pain. One Colorado cosmetic surgery center is offering a solution for dealing with post-operative pain, and minimizing its effects for quick recoveries for surgeries such as abdominoplasty (tummy tucks) and breast augmentation.
Denver, CO (PRWEB) October 12, 2006 – For many people considering cosmetic surgery, it isn’t the thought of having the procedure that holds them back; it’s the fear of pain.
One Colorado cosmetic surgery center is meeting that fear head on, and is now offering a simple way of eliminating the pain associated with many of today’s top cosmetic procedures.
Dr. Randolph C. Robinson and Dr. Jeremy Z. Williams of Park Meadows Cosmetic Surgery have announced they will be offering the use of ON-Q for many of their breast augmentation and tummy tuck procedures.
“The ON-Q Pain Relief Pump is a small balloon that holds a three to five day supply of local anesthetic, and continually delivers the medication directly into the surgical area through a tiny tube,” stated Dr. Robinson. “It affects only the area around the surgical site with no side effects such as nausea, drowsiness or constipation commonly associated with other forms of pain relief. The pain pump is put in place during surgery and is small enough to fit in your pocket during recovery. Its easily removed once the medication is gone.”
The ON-Q system of pain relief will be a major improvement for many patients. Not only will patients be able to get back on their feet faster, sometimes within hours of the surgery, they will also be able to get back to their normal routines in a shorter period of time.
“With many of the prescription drugs currently being used for pain relief, there are a substantial amount of side effects, including the risk of dependency,” stated Dr. Williams. “The ON-Q system greatly reduces that risk because it’s injected locally at the field of surgery where the patient needs it, instead of being delivered in formats that must travel through the body.”
Ultimately, it’s about patient recovery. When patients recover quicker, and report they had low levels of pain, it makes the experience of the procedure that much better.
