What patients ask about the day itself.
Anything not covered here is answered in person during your free consultation and Body Report.
- How long does the whole treatment day take? +
- Plan for four to six hours at the clinic from arrival to discharge, depending on how many areas are treated. You arrive, are marked and prepared, have the procedure under local anaesthetic, then rest briefly before going home the same day.
- Will I be awake during the procedure? +
- Yes. Everything is performed under local anaesthetic, so you remain awake and able to talk with your clinician throughout. There is no general anaesthetic and no overnight stay.
- Can I drive myself home afterwards? +
- No. You must arrange for someone to collect you or take a taxi. You walk out unaided, but driving on the day of treatment is not permitted.
- What happens in the first 72 hours? +
- You wear your compression garment continuously, keep moving gently around the house, and expect some leakage, swelling and bruising. Your clinical team checks in directly during this window and is reachable by phone or WhatsApp.
- When is my first follow-up? +
- You are seen in person for your first check-up within the first week, with further reviews scheduled alongside your included Green Laser and E-Body Sculpting sessions.
