Will I have to eat a special diet after my surgery?
After certain operations such as facelift with neck lift, chin augmentation or buccal fat reduction, you will be advised to avoid all food that needs chewing for the first week. Your diet will be based on things like soup, mashed potatoes, yoghurt, creamed vegetables and, of course, liquids. You should be able to brush your teeth normally but if there are cuts on the inside of your mouth it is advisable to use a soft toothbrush and rinse with mouthwash two or three times a day.
