My hemoglobin level is 11.9. I want to get a mommy makeover. Do I need my level to be higher than 11.9?

Your safety is always the number one priority during surgery. You should be fine to proceed with surgery with your current hemoglobin level as the procedures you are considering typically have minimal blood loss. The final determination will be made by your surgeon. I encourage you to discuss your lab results with the physician who ordered them to determine if any interventions should be considered.

Each plastic surgeon has his/her own protocols on required labs and clearances needed prior to surgery. I would recommend having a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon and discuss what is an acceptable hemoglobin level to safely proceed with surgery. Good luck!

I appreciate your concerns, however your hemoglobin level falls to within reasonable levels to undergo this operation. Precautions are always taken in any type of operation to minimize blood loss. Consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area to greatly increase chances for the safest and best possible result. Good luck.
