Can the chin liposuction procedure be done on a pregnant patient (1st trimester)?

Elective and cosmetic surgeries are not recommended during pregnancies. Aside from possible complications, your results could be compromised due to the weight changes you may endure post-pregnancy. If you experience weight gain, pregnancies, or any other drastic body altering changes following #liposuction, it is very possible the results may be compromised.  Hence, it is usually recommended that patients who have recently experienced weight loss and massive weight loss (#MWL) remain consistent at their weight for at least six to twelve months prior any cosmetic surgery. Such will better ensure longer lasting results of the procedure without risking the fluctuation and stretching of the skin tissue. It is better to wait until after your pregnancy to undergo such cosmetic procedures.  

Thank you for your question.  Cosmetic surgery should not be performed during pregnancy.  Congratulations on your pregnancy.  Best Wishes.

Thank you for your question.The medication used to numb the area is contraindicated during pregnancy. Also you will continue to gain weight during pregnancy, undoing the results from the liposuction. I would suggest to wait until after surgery.

We do necessary surgeries during pregnancy. This isn't necessary surgery. There is a risk to the baby, even if it is small. You've had this chin issue all your life so you should be able to wait 9 months to have it addressed when there is no risk to the baby.

 NO cosmetic surgery should be performed on pregnant patients. Only a surgical emergency such as appendicitis can be performed on  patients who are pregnant.
