“…On one side, these patients are extremely demanding, with little or no tolerance for complications, especially POP. A growing number are tourist patients who have traveled many hours and sometimes thousands of kilometers by train, plane, or car only to be operated in remote places, where another language is often spoken, and customs as well as food are different from their original countries [8,9]. Transgender and gender diversity patients are a steadily growing group requesting plastic surgery that requires meticulous care in a humanitarian sense, avoiding pejorative comments [10].…”

Advances in the knowledge of the secondary effects of acute postoperative pain have motivated anesthesiologists and surgeons to pay special attention to its prevention and correct management. Surgical procedures in plastic surgery are very varied and produce postoperative pain in direct relation to the site, type, and extent of surgery, with facial interventions being the least painful (with the exception of rhinoplasty) and the most painful being breast surgery, abdominoplasty, and extensive liposuctions due to the possibility of trauma to peripheral nerves and greater secondary inflammation. The combination of surgeries produces more intense post-surgical pain. There is insufficient data on the frequency and severity of pain after plastic surgery, be it reconstructive or cosmetic. Although opioids have been considered to be the cornerstone in the treatment of postsurgical pain, their use in plastic surgery patients must be carefully evaluated for various reasons that interfere with the results of this type of surgery. Similar to other surgical specialties, multimodal analgesia is now the most appropriate way to prevent and treat pain in these patients. This chapter is a comprehensive review of the management of acute postoperative pain in certain plastic surgery procedures, with emphasis on the multimodal approach.

With the increasing number of obese individuals in Brazil, the importance of studies aimed at researching the social and psychological impact of obesity is also increased. This study aimed to trace and analyze the processes of subjective construction of the obesity experience. This is a longitudinal case study with a 29-year-old obese woman submitted to bariatric surgery. The characteristics and power of explicit and implicit messages that operate in specific cultural contexts were investigated, analyzing the construction of meanings of self in the development of the dialogical self. Qualitative data analysis shows important aspects of the dynamics of fatphobia, its power to channel the subjective trajectory of the obese subject and the importance of alterity in the development of self. The study contributes to the advancement of knowledge about the relations between obesity, self, and prejudice, seeking to provide inputs for the performance of psychologists, educators, and health professionals.
