Hello, I am looking to have Lipo/BBL with Arm Lipo . My blood work for my PTT came back as a 41.1. I am not on any blood thinners or medication. Would it still be safe for me to have the procedure? I do carry the Thalassemia trait.
Answer: Surgery This question will best be answered by your medical doctor or even a hematologist. It does show you may have increased bleeding risks.

Answer: Very high PTT Based on that very high PPT you need repeat PTT asap. Stop any supplements or diet drinks/pills. Call your chosen surgeon to discuss, if you have one or going to clinic . Then no way to speak to assigned surgeon! A high PPT could indicate bleeding & clotting issues! Might need hematology clearance. Best to switch to private practice real plastic surgeon for your surgery …..
