You need cardiac clearance prior to conducting a cosmetic procedure like liposuction. Best, Dr. Emer.
It does not have to be anything serious but you will need clearance from your internist or cardiologist considering the risks of general anesthesia. Good luck.
Dear Luminous233240,it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. You will need to get a clearance from your cardiologist prior to surgery. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.Daniel Barrett, MDCertified, American Board of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery
I appreciate your concerns, however many heart murmurs are completely benign and do not preclude elective cosmetic surgery. You should first start by discussing your particular situation with your medical doctor. Most board-certified plastic surgeons will require medical clearance for someone that has a history of a heart murmur or other medical conditions. However with medical clearance, The surgery can be performed safely. Consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon in our area to explore the best options for you. Good luck.
A heart murmur does not usually mean you cannot get liposuction, but more detail will be needed to determine just what type of murmur you have, and whether there are any associated abnormalities present.At a consultation you will be able to provide more details to your surgeon and the appropriate testing before the procedure can be arranged if needed.
thanks for contacting us. yes you can if the specialist allow you surgery and every thing its fine with the test that we need to know if your heart its fine for surgery.
The short answer is maybe. You will first need to visit your cardiologist to discuss your interest in having liposuction. If given clearance you can then visit a board certified plastic surgeon near you for a consultation to learn more about the procedure. Many patients with underlying medical conditions are able to safely have surgery as long as the condition is well controlled.
The answer is-it depends. This isn’t the call of the plastic surgeon but, rather, your treating cardiologist who would have to clear you for surgery. Murmurs come in all varieties and degrees of seriousness. Discuss with your cardiologist to verify whether he or she would clear you before moving forward with a cosmetic consultation. Best wishes.
Yes but it depends on the type of heart murmur, severity. Best to ask your cardiologist for a written medical clearance. Then find a surgeon willing to accept this written clearance.
Yes you can have liposuction even if you have a heart murmur. If it is a significant murmur your surgeon will likely require cardiology clearance. Best of luck! Dr. Boschert
Liposuction can definitely enhance the appearance and shape of the buttocks. The main goal of liposuction is to remove the fullness above and below the butt. In other words to define the waist above the butt and make the legs longer. The goal of liposuction is to improve the curves above and...
Liposuction will help to further contour your figure. An in person evaluation will be helpful as your surgeon will be able to better demonstrate what you can expect. Your surgeon will be limited by your anatomy, but I do think you will notice an improvement from the procedure.
Thanks for the question. In this regard, I recommend you waist and back Liposculpture, getting better curves especially in the waist, improving your body contour. Kind regards
