It's never a good idea to have elective surgery with an active infection as this can increase your complication rate.
If there is truly an infection, then you should receive treatment; and you may have to delay your surgery. However, finding out you have the UTI before surgery is much better than not knowing and subjecting yourself to a higher rate of infection for the BBL.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA
Hello dear!!Thanks for the question. Certainly, if you have an UTI the best thing is to postpone the surgery, but it will depend on the treatment you get and how soon is your surgery is.Get in touch with your plastic surgeon as soon as possible to start the treatment and know his/her recommendations.Good luck :)
Yes, but UTIs are easily treated with oral antibiotics and resolve quickly. Depending on when your surgery is scheduled for, you could likely treat the infection and be rid of it before day of surgery.
Thank you for your questions. I would put off one or the other so that they do not interfere with one another. I would recommend separating the procedures by at least 6 weeks, but you should discuss this with your surgeon to get his or her preference. Better safe than sorry.Good luck!
