Can I do my inhaler before a breast implant surgery. (Ventolin).

One should always ask your surgeon and anesthesia provider if they want you to change your medicines ( hold them) before surgery.  Usually you will continue any breathing medicines since they help with your anesthesia - but do not negatively effect your result.Do not take any Aspirin, Advil, Alleve type products that make you bleed for a week before.

Yes, you should use your inhaler prior to undergoing general anesthesia.   You will want to expand your lungs prior to surgery.  I recommend an in-office examination as well as a detailed discussion with a surgeon who you are comfortable with.   Finally, make sure your surgeon is a Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS) and the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS).Best,Dr. DesaiBeverly Hills Institute for Aesthetic Plastic SurgeryHarvard Educated, Beverly Hills & Miami Beach Trained, Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

If you use inhalers, it is always a good idea to bring them with you on your surgery day.  Present them to the anesthesiologist, and they may have you administer a dose just prior to going in for surgery.  We also want them available in case you need them while in recovery.
