I appreciate your question. You would need to be cleared for elective surgery by your primary care doctor and your blood pressure would need to be under control, prior to undergoing elective surgery.The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery. Best of luck! Dr. Schwartz Board Certified Plastic Surgeon #RealSelf100Surgeon #RealSelfCORESurgeon
Thank you for your question. Yes, it is possible to have a tummy tuck if you have high blood pressure. The main issue is to make sure that your blood pressure is well controlled and stable on your medication. If you have a blood pressure spike after surgery, it could lead to bleeding and a hematoma, requiring another procedure. If there is any a question, your surgeon may have you get a preoperative medical evaluation by your family doctor.Good luck.
Hello dear!Thanks for the question and provided information as well.In general, you need to be physically healthy and at a stable weight, have realistic expectations, be a non-smoker and your BMI needs to be 33 or less.l recommend you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon to talk about your goals and anything you need to know.Good luck :)

Thanks for your question. Any patient that goes through a surgery needs to do pre op exams, this exams also includ a cardiology consultation. If your blood pressure is well controlled and you are using your medecine regularly it should not be a problem. Regard.
That is about my average time for the two procedures. However, surgery is not a race. It is about doing things efficiently to generate the best result and reduce the complications associated with increased anesthesia time.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA
This is an excellent question. You really should discuss this with your plastic surgeon. If its a little elevated, just outside of the normal limits, let your Plastic surgeon guide you. If its too high, your plastic surgeon should refer you to your primary care doctor for further evaluation....
