Question

I have high blood pressure hypertension stage 1 and I am on meds for it. I was wondering will is still be able to get bbl. Even though I have high blood pressure?

Stefan Mark Szczerba, MD · Answer

No idea what "stage 1 of hypertension"  means.... that is new to me.   In terms of safety with surgery with any hypertensive patient, anesthesia need to be experience with the effect oft those medications especially in the early part of the start of anesthesia.  Any reputable, board certified plastic surgeon is required to work only in accredited settings - so look for ASPS credentialing.  ASPS stands for the American Society of Plastic Surgeons... the website is plasticsurgery.org and they can locate board certified plastic surgeons in your area.  Then look for someone who is experienced with BBL's- not every board certified plastic surgeon does them as this is a relatively new procedure and truly required the right training and the right instruments.  One expert that is world renown is Dr. Daniel Delveccio.  
Best Wishes!!

As long as your blood pressure is well controlled with medication and you are otherwise healthy, you can proceed with surgery.

Thank you for your question. to be a good candidate for the procedures you want, your pre op labs and cardiovascular preoperative evaluation must be optimal to make sure everything is under control.

Dear Sunflower121892,
you should be healthy prior to surgery and in some cases, you might need a clearance from your doctor. 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.
