Will I be rejected as a candidate for BBL on suspicion of allergy to anesthesia?

Hello and thank you for your question,
In regards to allergy to anesthesia, A BBL requires you to be put under general anesthesia ( propofol falls under this category) . I would book you for a pre-operative interview with the Anesthetist that would preform your anesthesia, If they deem that is unsafe for you to undergo the anesthesia then you would unlikely be able to have the surgery preformed. The surgery can take anywhere from 2 to 3 hours, so i would require assurance that the form of anesthesia you would undergo is a safe option for you.
Hope this has helped, and good luck.

Dear luxxor,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Great question. You may not have an allergy but were just given too much lidocaine. Ask you doctor how much lidocaine and what type as it sounds more like overdose then allergy. However, if you were allergic to lidocaine a BBL would need to be done under general anesthesia without lidocaine, so, it si still possible.
