Had blood work done for tummy tuck I'm concerned but dr isn't. Should I postpone?

Amypatton
I had bcc and which ever blood testing is done for tummy tuck. My platelet count was 480000 should I postpone surgery ? The dr doesn't seem to be worried. My hemoglobin (iron) was slightly low 11.5 everything else was normal.
