How to Do Dressing Yourself After a LAMS Procedure: A Simple Guide

Hello! This is LipoMinac365, your trusted source for body contouring! After your LAMS (Localized Anesthesia Minimally-invasive Liposuction) procedure, it’s important to know how to take care of your wounds at home. Don’t worry—this process is simple, and we’re here to guide you through it step by step.

What to Expect After the Procedure

• Fluid Discharge: After the procedure, some yellowish or slightly blood-tinged liquid may flow out from the puncture sites. This is completely normal and nothing to worry about.
• Bruising & Swelling: These are also expected and will gradually improve. Most patients notice a visible reduction in both within 7 days.
  

How to Care for Your Wounds (Dressing Instructions)

First Week: Duoderm & Bearoban (ointment)

1. Apply Duoderm
   
   • Cut the Duoderm patch to fit the wound area
   • Apply it directly over the puncture site.
   • Change the Duoderm every 2 to 3 days.
     
2. Use Bearoban (Ointment)
   
   • Apply a thin layer of Bearoban ointment underneath the Duoderm to help protect and heal the skin.
   • Continue this routine for 1 week.
     

After One Week

• You may stop using Duoderm after the first week.
  

Continue applying Bearoban ointment daily for 1 month to keep the area moisturized and support healing.

When Can I Remove the Dressings?

• You can remove the Duoderm and the white soft patch (usually a cotton pad or gauze) after 24 hours.
• However, do not remove the tiny strip directly covering the puncture site.
  Let it fall off naturally, this strip helps seal the entry point and protect against infection.
  

Final Tips

• Keep the area clean and dry.
• Avoid strenuous activity during the healing period.
• Do not go to saunas or receive massages for at least 1 month after surgery, as this can interfere with proper healing.
• If you notice signs of infection (excessive redness, pus, foul odor), contact your clinic immediately.
  

Taking care of your wounds properly is a key part of achieving great results from your LAMS procedure. By following these simple steps, you’re supporting faster recovery and smoother healing.
