I have elevated HCG levels in my bloodwork, as I had a surgical abortion two weeks ago (was on birthcontrol) Currently. I have surgery this tuesday flying from Canada to Miami. I have a signed doctors note showing I am not pregnant, but having any HCG levels coming back on lab work is detrimental to breast augmentation surgery why? Looking for honest answers about why a surgeon would not allow me to get surgery with confirmation I am not pregnant.

Thank you for your question.Do contact your plastic surgeon if the band is causing you more pain. It is best to get these things checked out sooner rather than later.
I think it is still reasonable to ask for pain control after breast augmentation surgery. I would go and see your surgeon.Best Wishes,Nana Mizuguchi, MD
