Can you advise on covid vaccine before cosmetic surgery?

Dear Terrific464639,
every plastic surgeon has his own preoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.

You need to discuss this situation with your surgeon as he/she will be the one determining if it is okay to proceed with surgery. Your surgeon is most familiar with the details of your surgery as well as your medical history. Generally speaking, it should be fine for you to proceed as planned.

At this time patients should be fully vaccinated before having any elective surgical procedure. That means two weeks after the second dose. This is to protect you and all the people who will be working around you during your surgery.

Your procedure should not have been scheduled until you’ve been fully vaccinated.

This is something you need to discuss with your provider.

Getting blood thinners for surgery is he relevant to your Covid vaccination.
Best,

Mats Hagstrom MD
