Should you wear compression socks during or after lipo 360/BBL surgery. Is BP of 134/101 to high for general anesthesia when getting lipo/ bbl
Answer: Are compression socks okay to wear during/after Lipo 360/BBL? What about high blood pressure? Plastic surgeon preferences for compression garments and length of time to wear differ. Ask your PS for post-operative protocols that he/she wants you to follow. Some of my patients find that Ace bandages work fine as sock compression garments can a bit tight and uncomfortable. Following a BBL, I typically ask patients to use adjustable garments with multiple bands so that tension can be ajusted and the areas of liposuction are less likely to get a fluid collection. The garments typically do not cover the buttocks. Anesthesiologists will monitor your blood pressure and heart rate closely before, during, and after your surgical procedure. Plus, they have medications they can administer if blood pressure becomes too high or too low during surgery.

Answer: Compression socks There are several things going on here. First, you should purchase a home BP monitor and chart your BP multiple times s day. If your bottom number (diastolic) is over 90, you should seek medical attention to properly manage it. Once stabilized, it will be safer for both a long life and choosing surgery.

Answer: Preparing for surgery These are all questions you should ask your surgeon if you’ve chosen one. If you’ve not chosen one then I suggest scheduling multiple in person consultations with local board-certified plastic surgeons who have extensive experience with the procedure. At that time you can discuss your questions and they can tell you their pre-and post operative protocols.
