Dear patient,as long as you do not drink a crazy number of cups of coffee which can give you irregular heart beats, 1 or 2 cups a day is fine.and same for alcohol: 1 glass a day is fine.I tell my patients no crazy partying the night before surgery so they do not have a hangover, and are dehydrated...same for drugs, by the way ! but we can do drug testing in the hospital pre-op...we do a lot of BBL, and most patients are reasonable when it comes for cosmetic surgery.good luck,Florence Mussat
Yes, it’s typically advised to avoid caffeine and alcohol for a certain period before surgery, including BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift) or breast lift surgery. Both substances can interfere with the body’s ability to heal and may increase the risk of complications during and after surgery. Your plastic surgeon will provide specific instructions tailored to your individual case.
There may be some blood thinning capability of alcohol so I have patients restrict their intake before surgery. Coffee is no problem.
Other than blood thinners and nicotine, I usually don't require patients to stop the use of caffeine or alcohol with any type of procedure. Caffeine or alcohol in moderation has not had any untoward effects in my patients. Hope that helps.

Gentle moderation is a must both before and after breast surgery and any surgery for that matter. I suggest no caffeine or alcohol the day before surgery and certainly during the period after surgery do not mix alchhol and pain medication. A little caffeine on the 2nd day and beyond is okay.

I think a meticulous scar revision and perfect post op care with Retin A-Hydroquinone and a silicone paste or sheeting will give you a good chance of a meaningful improvement. Scar revisions are always a gamble of sorts. It is unlikely that you will be made worse,...
Sounds like you have large breasts that have a ptosis (droop) problem. This can be corrected with a vertical mastopexy-reduction. Seek a consultation with a plastic surgeon and sort out your options. My Best, Dr C
Hello, thank you for your question. As i can see in your Picture you don't apply for a doughnut breast lift because of the laxity of your breast, you're a better candidate to a breast lift with implants over the muscle and an anchor incision. That way we can treat you skin laxity properly...
