Publisher Description:
"Have you ever seen a picture of a celebrity who recently had liposuction? In the picture, their stomach is lumpy and rippled. The first thought is to blame it on the doctor or "bad plastic surgery." Nicole Psomas, the author, shows the reader that this is not because of bad plastic surgery, but rather, bad care after surgery.

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.

Contributor Bio(s): Psomas, Nicole: - "Nicole Psomas is a physical therapist who graduated with a Master's of Health and Science in Physical Therapy from Thomas Jefferson University in 2003. She grew up in Wyckoff, New Jersey, and attended Ramapo High School in Franklin Lakes. After graduation, she moved to New York City and was hired by the world-famous New York Presbyterian Hospital-Weill Cornell Medical Center. She held the position of clinical specialist for the Trauma, Surgical, and Medicine Service and is a Certified Lymphedema Therapist.

In 2010, Nicole chose to have an elective cosmetic procedure done with New York City plastic surgeon, Dr. David Shafer, MD. With no information on rehabilitation after cosmetic plastic surgery, she instinctually used the skills she practiced on a daily basis to facilitate healing and improve her appearance. Dr. Shafer was astounded by her results and asked her to share the secrets for a fabulous recovery.
