- The short hospital stay allows for an early return to daily life.
- For simple surgeries, a one-day hospital stay is sufficient.
- Post-treatment sequelae are also significantly reduced.
Risks and Notes
After surgery, you may experience heat, swelling, infection, complications, or radiating pain at the surgical site, so continuous management is required. Recovery varies by individual depending on the patient's health status and characteristics. It is essential to be fully aware of post-operative precautions and contraindications to prevent side effects. Even if you do not feel pain, please refrain from strenuous movements and avoid climbing up or down stairs as much as possible.
