Answer: IUD removal before plastic surgery Thank you for you very good question.There is a low but definite risk of DVT and PE with some surgical procedures. An abdominoplasty is one of them. The length of the procedure increases the risk. You sound like you will be adding a BBL to the tummy tuck so this will add additional time to the procedure and will limit mobility after the procedure as well.For these reasons you should consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to decide whether to discontinue the birth control. It may be prudent to discuss this with your OB as well.Good luck.

Answer: Cessation of birth control prior to abdominoplasty is a case-by-case. Hormone therapy can increase the risk of pulmonary embolism in a substantial operation such as abdominoplasty. Based on other risk factors, your surgeon may or may not want to have the device removed.
