Having cosmetic surgery w/health issues

I have been wanting lipo w/ fat grafting to the buttocks for quite sometime now. I am 30 years old, have high blood pressure,thyroid disease and an enlarged heart. Are there any others that have had similar surgery with health issues and pulled through?

Hi Kena,

Most plastic surgeons will ask for your regular doctor or specialist to sign off on your health. And, of course, it's definitely something to mention in your pre-op chats. You may need to get your blood pressure under control. Are you taking any medications for it?

Here are some more links about surgery w/ additional health issues:

Good luck and please keep us posted!
