Does a heart murmur interfere with getting a Mommy Makeover?

Many heart murmurs are of no functional significance. However this has to be established by cardiologist prior to having elective aesthetic procedures such as a mommy makeover.

Murmurs in and of themselves do not nesessarily preclude you from having surgery. However, you muist be thoroughly checked out by a cardiologist. Good Luck

Heart murmurs are frequently asymptomatic but you should follow through with your testing to be sure that you can proceed with your mommy makeover.  The results of your tests will be evaluated by the cardiologist and your plastic surgeon will make the final decision regarding safety and surgery.Best of luck,

Most heart murmurs are benign, but there is always a chance that yours could be more significant. The Echocardiogram test that you will be getting will give you the information that you need. Your cardiologist will need to clear you for your surgery after you have completed your workup tests. There is no way to advise you about your condition without knowing the specifics of your echocardiogram results. 

Heart murmurs can be innocent to very serious.  A complete work up by your cardiologist is necessary prior to any cosmetic surgery. Your plastic surgeon must get those results and talk to the cardiologist about your murmur to make sure that elective surgery is  safely accomplish it can be done at all.

It is fortunate that you are being evaluated thoroughly before your planned plastic surgery.  Often heart murmurs are present but are not associated with significant underlying cardiac problems.  After your evaluation your doctors will be able to determine whether or not your murmur is associated with any significant cardiac abnormality. 

The decision
to have a Mommy Makeover will be determined somewhat by the results of your
studies. If your health information reveals a benign
heart murmur, very common in women, then your surgery can be conducted without
any medical issues. If, however, the murmur represents something more serious, this should
be addressed before having a Mommy Makeover by a heart specialist.Hope this helps!

Thank you for the question. The presence of a heart murmur, in and of itself, will not necessarily interfere with your ability to proceed with mommy makeover surgery. You are doing the right thing in completing the cardiology workup; hopefully, your cardiologist will provide “clearance” to your plastic surgeon. Best wishes.

Some heart murmurs are benign however others may be significant.  It us best to determine the reason for the heart murmur by having a Cardiologist evaluate you.  An ECHO is an ultrasound of your heart which will evaluate the heart motion and heart valvles.  Best to you

Most murmurs are benign, if you have a procedure you should first get cardiology clearance just to be on the safe side
