Should I Lay Off Caffeine Before Breast Augmentation?

Question

Should someone lay off caffeine before a breast augmentation?

Jerome Edelstein, MD · Answer

Caffeine should be fine, but you should discuss this with your surgeon to make sure they are alright with it. Best wishes.

J. Jason Wendel, MD, FACS · Answer

I know of know reason to limit your caffeine intake prior to breast augmentation. Ask your plastic surgeon if he/she has any specific restrictions other than nothing to eat or drink after midnight the day before surgery.

Don W. Griffin, MD · Answer

Other than the risk of getting a headache from caffeine withdrawal on the day of surgery, I know of no other reason for you to avoid caffeine preoperatively.

Donald M. Brown, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question. You do not have to stop caffeine before your breast surgery.  Don't forget however, that you must not have anything by mouth (npo) for 6-8 hours before your surgery.

Steven Wallach, MD · Answer
