Can you have a Brazilian Butt Lift with a stent in your heart? Is it safe?

Dear cswirl80,
Thank you for your question.  Several factors go into evaluating you gor surgery.  Your overall health i scetainly one of them.  I have my patients get medical clearance first.  If you are stble from a cardiac standpoint and have been cleared by your Cardiologist then I would not deny you the procedure.  I woud wnat your to be seen and cleared by your cario;ogist first however.  I would want you to be Cardiac symptom free for at least 6 mos and I would want to do your procedure in the hospital with an overnight stay.
Hope this helps

Hi, and thank you for the question

A very interesting question, sorry to tell you that there is not straight answer to your question. because it will depend on a few issues like: -Why was the stent needed (what type of coronary obstruction you had, and is it resolved)-Risks factors like age, smoking, other conditions (diabetes, pulmonary disease, etc)-Your current medical status-Size of the procedure.As you can understand studies and test are needed to see if you are clear for surgery but in general, if you seek the attention of a certified plastic surgeon, you should have a great result and a normal life. So feel free to contact us for further evaluation.   

Thank you again and have a great day
