After the Cut: How to Prepare For and Recover From Cosmetic Plastic Surgery Kindle Edition
After The Cut is a comprehensive how-to guide for preparation and recovery after cosmetic plastic surgery. The author begins by explaining how to determine if surgery is the right choice for you. She describes the realities of plastic surgery that many people do not know.
The book goes on to teach you how to prepare your mind, body, and home for surgery; those best prepared for surgery have better results. A typical “surgery day” is described to the reader, so they know what to expect.
Once out of surgery, and recovery begins, the reader is given a detailed guide of the author’s innovative method on how exactly to recover after any cosmetic plastic surgery procedure. Some typical procedures she discusses are: liposuction, tummy tucks, breast augmentation, body lifts, face lifts, buttock lifts, and more. Her method will teach you how to prevent complications, reduce swelling, increase range of motion, decrease pain, increase sensation, decrease scar tissue, and ultimately maximize the results and appearance after cosmetic plastic surgery.
Like any surgery, plastic surgery should be made with serious consideration and not entered into lightly. The choice to have plastic surgery is a personal one that will have a significant impact on a person’s future. The steps illustrated in this book empower the patient to play a substantial role in their recovery. With this knowledge, the patient can feel confident about making one of the most personal decisions of their life.

- Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2023Perfect for the practitioner and helpful for the patient. Nicole's book is like a nutrient rich meal! I'm looking forward to taking her course in Las Vegas!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2020I think it is a great book, very needed for getting information to prepare yourself for surgery. However it is very repetitive, I wish instead there were more new useful information. Also this book would be very important to read for someone who have no knowledge at all, haven't done much a research yet, but for the person like me, who has been reading, researching a lot prior reading this book it was a bit of let down. I read nothing that I didn't know already. I still don't regret reading it, I wish it was audio version though. Good luck in your journey!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2023As a Massage Therapist that specializes in post-op care this book is everything. It breaks down everything you need to know and an easy read.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2021This book is mandatory for anyone who is or will be recovering from plastic surgery. After reading you will realize that the author is an expert in her field. The chapter on how to reduce swelling and the other chapter on lymphatic drainage were so very helpful.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2021This book was SO helpful! The information is succinct and lays out exactly how you should handle your postoperative care. I just purchased the recommended products for scar care, I was relieved to have recommendations since there are so many options to choose from. I highly recommend this book.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2021I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Psomas is clearly an expert in the field and it shows. It will prepare anyone undergoing surgery (of any kind) pre, during and post procedure. This was so helpful.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2021If considering plastic surgery this book offers guidance from the perspective of someone trained in the art of healing and recovery. It is thoughtful and well researched. It also makes a good gift for someone who is preparing for cosmetic surgery.
