GOALS & OBJECTIVES
RESEARCH
OBJECTIVES
This study aims to address the main pain points of users in postoperative recovery and explore how to provide personalized and efficient care support through mobile applications.
PROJECT
BACKGROUND
Plastic surgery is a medical procedure that improves appearance, repairs defects or enhances functions through surgery. Common surgeries include rhinoplasty, breast augmentation and double eyelid surgery, etc., which provide individuals with the opportunity to adjust their self-image.
PROBLEM ANALYSIS
During the postoperative recovery period, patients need close care and drug supervision. However, in reality, not all patients can get round-the-clock care. Therefore, the development of a mobile application can provide patients with convenient, comprehensive and personalized postoperative support, including postoperative precautions, medication instructions and recovery period diet suggestions, to help them better follow the doctor's instructions and promote recovery.
