Can I wear my knickers during a BBA?

The answer depends on the regulations at the surgery center.  At ours, we allow patients to keep their underwear on if they feel more comfortable this way.

Pants/knickers are not allowed to be worn during a surgical procedure.  Depending on the facility that you are using, you may be able to leave your underwear on.  Ideally, you can speak with your Plastic Surgeon to find out what is allowed to be worn during your surgery.  Good luck.

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 :-)
