I'm a 37 year old female who suffered a stroke in July of 2015. The cause was due to an operator error: not a personal medical problem. Overall, I'm considering the mommy makeover, Brazilian butt lift, and Liposuction if necessary. I would like only 1 procedure done at a time: so as to maximize recovery time and minimize any unnecessary risk. Thank you.
Answer: Is it safe for a stroke survivor to undergo cosmetic surgery? I am sorry to hear about the stroke you experienced; this history in and of itself will not necessarily preclude you from undergoing cosmetic surgery. However, prior to proceeding it will be important that you ask the physicians who know you best to evaluate your "risk profile" and provide you with medical clearance. When the time is right, seek consultation with board-certified plastic surgeons who can demonstrate lots of experience SAFELY achieving the types of outcomes you would be pleased with.Best wishes.

Answer: Is it safe for a stroke survivor to undergo cosmetic surgery? If your stroke was not due to a medical condition like heart disease, a clotting disorder or other major medical condition then it is possible for you to have a safe mommy makeover. However, you will need a full medical work-up to rule out the most common causes of stroke. Speak with your regular doctor and your plastic surgeon to determine which tests are most appropriate.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO

Answer: Surgical candidate You may be a candidate for surgery, but should first discuss your wish to have surgery with your neurologist. Medical clearance will be needed. From there you and your plastic surgeon can proceed with your plan to help you achieve your goals while keeping risk low. Best wishes.
