While contouring my natural butt and getting rid of cellulite on my thighs and maybe filling out my sagging breast with fat transfer. Can any of this be done when I have G6PD Deficiency that I have never experienced any issue with.
Answer: Tummy Tuck Individuals with Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency need to take special precautions regarding certain medications and treatments that might trigger a hemolytic crisis, where red blood cells are destroyed, causing anemia and other complications. This condition can be sensitive to certain drugs and oxidative stress. Before considering any surgical procedure like a Mommy Makeover, tummy tuck, or liposuction, it's crucial for individuals with G6PD deficiency to inform their healthcare provider, including their plastic surgeon. This allows the medical team to take appropriate precautions and choose safe medications and anesthesia for the procedure. Specifically, anesthesia and certain medications used during and after surgery need careful consideration. An anesthesiologist and surgical team must be aware of this condition to select medications that won't trigger a hemolytic crisis in individuals with G6PD deficiency. It's essential to have a thorough discussion with your healthcare providers, including a hematologist or a specialist familiar with managing G6PD deficiency, to assess the risks and ensure safety during and after the procedure. They can help tailor a treatment plan and precautions to minimize potential complications associated with the surgery and the condition.

Answer: Surgery candidate Dear Phenomenal733534, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. You will need to get a clearance from your doctor prior to surgery. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Abdominoplasty with mesh reinforcement You need to get medical clearance from your physician first before surgery. You need to make them aware that the operation may take 4-6 hours, depending on what all is done. If you are not planning future pregnancies, I recommend abdominoplasty with mesh reinforcement. The mesh creates a more hourglass figure by compressing the abdominal wall resulting in early satiety and helps maintain a reduced weight. Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.
