Dear jennysaucedo10,it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you 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
Dear Jenny,The protein S deficiency makes you more susceptible to forming blood clots. A consultation with your hematologist along with their input will decide if it is indeed safe to proceed with surgery. They will make recommendations for using Lovenox or other anticoagulation therapy both pre and post-op.Best wishes,Dr. Taranow
