Optional Products and Services
The surgeons and staff at Aqua Plastic Surgery want all patients to have the best result possible from their cosmetic procedures. In the days before and after surgery, there are additional products and services we offer to help patients in their healing, surgical recovery, and scar treatment. These products and services are not covered under the quoted cost of your procedure. If you have questions or would like to add any products or services to your procedure, please contact your coordinator.
Please see the list below for available products and services and pricing.
Supplements
Arnika Forte - $32 plus tax
For the treatment of bruising and swelling.
This remedy has been selected by physicians to ensure the highest grade in accordance with the FDA
regulations for homeopathic preparations. It contains:
*Bromelain- a natural substance found in pineapple that will ensure a more rapid reduction of bruising.
*Grape Seed Extract- decreases the capillary permeability and fragility.
*Vitamin C- a very powerful antioxidant and extremely important in wound repair.
Typically started 1 week before surgery and continued for 1 week after surgery.

Vitamin IV Therapy
Myer's Cocktail - $250
When administered during surgery, Myer's Cocktail has been shown to improve immune system response which means less bruising, reduced swelling, better wound healing, and improved recovery time. Myer's Cocktail includes:
- Vitamin C
- Vitamin B Complex
- Vitamin B12
- Magnesium
- Glutathion
Banana Bag- $150
No one likes hangovers, even when they're souvenirs of the anesthesia you received that day. Being NPO can make rehydrating difficult. With a banana bag, you can simply lie there in peace while rehydrating with a perfect cocktail of magnesium sulfate, thiamine and healthy vitamins. The banana bag contains:
- Thiamine
- Folic Acid
- Magnesium
The banana bag is more for reestablishing electrolyte imbalances and smoothing the wake-up process. The Myers Cocktail is more for immune defense and wound healing. Many patients opt to do both of these at the same time for optimum healing and to improve their experience when coming out of anesthesia.
I, {name} , acknowledge I have been informed of the cost of the services and products on this form. I understand that although these products and services are optional to me, in many cases they are recommended for optimal healing and results from surgery.
