Drinking protein shakes and taking multivitamins up until a week before surgery. Is this ok?

The concern is that multivitamins and protein shakes may interfere with blood coagulation. Most likely if you stopped them now, they should not interfere with your surgery.It is important that you discuss this with your plastic surgeon and follow all of her or his advice.Robert Singer, MD  FACSLa Jolla, California

More than likely you will be okay and be able to proceed. Best to run this question by your plastic surgeon who  is ultimately responsible for your care. Patients seeking plastic surgery, generally speaking, should understand that it is best to follow preoperative instructions  carefully, given that they are designed to help prepare patients for safe/successful surgical procedures and recovery periods. Best wishes; hopefully you will be pleased with the outcome of the planned procedure.

No need to panic.  Please share this information with your plastic surgeon and he/she will give you his/her recommendations on how best to proceed.  Best wishes.

I can't imagine there would be any problem, but my opinion does n9ot matter at all in this case. You must contact your surgeon and get their opinion.
