Even a minimally featured bidet will at least soften things up and make wiping more effective.

I used a tushy bidet to start, which is pretty cheap and easy to get going and get comfortable with it. I would recommend the warm water options, but you need to have a sink nearby to steal the warm water from. Fancier warm water bidets have an instant water heater, so you don't need a hot water tap, just power.

I have since upgraded to one with all the features, and here's how my process typically goes:

Sit down on heated seat
Push out what I can
Using the remote, turn on low pressure heated water with pulsating mode. I can also move the spray back/forth with the remote to get everything.
Switch to high pressure for a moment. That has enough pressure to get up in there a bit, which seems to lubricate/soften any parts that didn't come out through sheer effort earlier.
Pause, push out one more time
Go back to low pressure to tidy up
Turn on blow dryer for a bit, or dry off with TP if I'm in a hurry.
