I have gone to several consultations & some surgeons require pre-surgical bloodwork to check for anemia, hemophilia, blood borne illness, etc. Is it a red flag that some do not require pre-surgical blood work? For reference I am an otherwise healthy 32 year old. Should I request bloodwork just to be safe? Thanks!

Answer: Bloodwork pre-op All of my patients are required to have a medical clearance prior to surgery. Depending on your health history, bloodwork may be required.

Answer: Yes. Yes, pre-surgery bloodwork is typically necessary for a breast lift procedure. Blood tests are usually performed to assess the patient's overall health, including liver and kidney function, electrolyte levels, and blood count, as well as to screen for certain medical conditions such as anemia, bleeding disorders, and diabetes. It's important to follow the instructions of your plastic surgeon and provide any necessary medical information, including the results of pre-operative blood tests, to ensure the best possible outcome for your surgery.
