Do I need to remove all piercings prior to procedures like; lipo, bbl, ba, tt surgery?

Piercings and jewelry need to be removed the day of surgery. If there are piercings that you have a concern might close and be difficult to repierce, you can use a plastic spacer to keep the piercings open. Metal piercings could possibly result in burn injury to the skin when cautery is used for surgery. 

To reduce the risk of burns and infection in particular, all piercings need to be removed from your body. All other jewelry also needs to be removed. You can remove everything on the day of your surgery, and please leave it all at home for safekeeping.

We always ask our patients to remove any jewelry, piercings or any type of metal touching the body prior to surgery.  This is necessary for your safety during surgery when cautery is used to keep bleeding during surgery to a minimum.  Plastic spacers are available to maintain the space until surgery is complete.  This is a standard requirement in all operating rooms and outpatient surgery centers.Best of luck,

hi! Metal things at the body have to be removed prior to surgery.  Remember safety first.
