Can I get lipo and a tummy tuck is my blood type is RH negative?

This is a great question.  Blood type (either ABO or Rh factor) shouldn't affect your ability to undergo a routine plastic surgery procedure such as liposuction or a tummy tuck.  Blood type is important in matching donor blood for a transfusion, and most major hospitals should have all blood types available should the need for a transfusion arise.  However, requiring a transfusion from one these types of procedures is rare, since the blood loss during surgery is usually very low.  Best of luckKeith Blechman, MD

For these operations we do not type and crossmatch patients for blood transfusion, ever.  There is no reason whatsoever that your blood type would affect your candidacy for these surgeries.

Rh type does not influence or impact a TT. This is most important during pregnancy. It is extremely uncommon to need a blood transfusion following a TT, and in the rare event that this  would be necessary you should still be able to avail of a blood transfusion. Good luck!
