Is it safe to do a tummy tuck if my iron level is 11?

If you are referring to your hemoglobin, then 11 should be fine.  Normal blood loss for a good surgeon performing an abdominoplasty is just a few cc's (less than an ounce).  Make she your are going to an experienced surgeon and all should be great.

I assume you are speaking of your hemoglobin levels, and this indicates that you have mild anemia. This should not prevent you from having a tummy tuck. I suggest finding a plastic surgeon that uses a Bovie, which both cuts and simultaneously coagulates small blood vessels, for all of the dissecting to prevent much blood loss. Done with skill, the blood loss in negligible. I suggest also that you have the drainless (no drain) TT to take advantage of the faster recovery time, less pain, lower complication rate, and you won't have the dreaded drains for 5-10 days or more. The drainless TT does require Progressive Tension Sutures, so one can't simply elect to eliminate the drains without the knowledge of the special technique.Your Internist or gynecologist should place you on iron supplements to build up your hemoglobin.Thank you for your question, and good luck.

Thanks for your inquiry, your iron level can be 11 which is low, or your hemoglobin level more likely is 11 which is slightly low.  Many factors determine the amount of blood loss in any given surgery, please ask your surgeon how much blood loss he/she anticipates.
