Hello,Thank you for your question. For breast augmentation surgery, underwear is often allowed. I recommend that you ask your Plastic Surgeon about this.All the best
Thank you for the question. The answer is it depends on the surgeon and surgical center rules but in most cases when that is allowed the underwear has to be pure cotton no nylon or metal so you don't get burned when we use electrocautery to coagulate the blood vessels during surgery. Discuss this with your plastic surgeon. Best of luck!Dr. Khuthaila
Thanks so much for reaching out. It really depends on the procedures and protocols of the surgery center you're having your operation in. And my center which if Ikelea have patience take the pants off but they're on the work and say I'm doing breast procedures. I hope this helps :-)
The answer is it depends on the rules of the surgery center. At my surgery center, we routinely have patients have on their underwear that has no metal on it while having a breast augmentation.
This depends on your surgeon and surgery center rules. I have patients who wear their favorite garments to surgery.
We instruct all of our patients to wear cotton underwear the day of your surgery, however, each facility could have differing protocol.
Dear PatientIm afraid that the answer is no, you will not be able to wear your own underwear during your surgical procedure. However you will be provided with paper knickers, therefore your genital areas will be covered at all times.This has to do with having to use diathermy instruments in order to coagulate blood vessels (to stop any bleeding); electricity will be traveling through your body and we don't want for the electricity to be transmitted to the skin and cause a burn. This is also why you are supposed to remove jewellery and any metal piercing prior to surgery. I hope this helps?Best wishes and good luck with your surgery!
Thank you for your question. In my office we allow patients to keep their pants on during a simple breast augmentation. We always suggest wearing ones you don't truly care about in case they get betadine on them that can stain them. Every surgeon is different, so be sure to ask yours if that is what they do in their office. I wish you the best of luck!
Thank you for your question. This is something that you need to ask your doctor or the surgery center where your operation will be performed, it will depend on them. As for my operating room, we have our patients keep everything from the waste down on during the surgery.

Far more important than the technique is the skill and experience of your plastic surgeon. Choose your surgeon rather than the technique and let them explain why one technique may be better than another. See the below link on some suggestions on finding the most qualified Plastic Surgeon for a B...
Surgery on men who wish to live their life as a woman is now very common. The transgender surgery is not a requirement to qualify for breast augmentation. I believe it is important to have a psychological evaluation before the surgery and be appropriately cleared from a medical point of view as...
Thank you for your question. My advice is that a walker or cane is not necessary following a tummy tuck. Best to seek a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon. Good luck.
Hi there, Thank you for your question. Speak with your surgeon to discuss what specific incision care is meant for you. Best, realdrsix
Hi there, Thank you for your question. For an elective procedure I do not like to plan procedures that will last longer than 5 hours. Best, realdrsix
