What To Expect During Recovery

The time your body needs to recover from gender affirming surgery depends on the type of procedure, but most Santa Maria patients resume regular activities within 2-3 weeks. Wearing compression garments aids in the healing process, and we will provide you with specific guidelines for post-op activities.

You will feel some discomfort, swelling, and lethargy during the initial week.

Periodic follow-ups enable us to assess the healing process and confirm that you are healing properly. Your comfort is important to us during each step of the process.
