I'm the donor and my kidney transplant is scheduled 5/11/22 and want to know if I'm able to get breast augmentation done when I'm fully recovered?
Answer: Absolutely when medically stable First, very nice of you to donate a kidney. I took care of a patient 3 weeks ago with a similar situation and she did great. Good luck.

Answer: Kidney transplant What a kind thing you are doing by donating your kidney! Once you have fully recovered from your kidney donation, your kidney function has returned to normal, and you have clearance from your nephrologist you can consider breast augmentation. Visit the ASPS website to find a board certified plastic surgeon near you.

Answer: Breast aug and kidney transplant hello, what an honorable deed to donate your kidney! Once you are recovered, your kidney function is within normal limits then a discussion with your Plastic surgeon to proceed with a breast augmentation can begin. Talk to your nephrologist if possible and get a list of medications that you will be taking for the surgery to show your nephrologist if all of that would be ok. thank you
