Answer: Lupus and BBL The safety of performing elective cosmetic surgery with lupus is going to depend on the severity of your lupus. I would recommend talking with your rheumatologist, your primary care doctor and your plastic surgeon to have all 3 of them make an informed decision together. Good luck!

Answer: Lupus and cosmetic surgery Both lupus and its treatment with prednisone puts you at increased risk for complications.The decision to have elective cosmetic surgery needs to be made as a team effort between your rheumatologist and plastic surgeon. many factors need to be taken into consideration. All surgical procedures need to be assessed in terms of a risk benefit ratio. Some people will have a dramatic change in quality of life from a cosmetic procedure.For someone like that it may be justified to have a slightly increased risk of complications to undergo a procedure.For others it may have a barely noticeable impact.For those it would not justify any significant medical health risks. I would start by talking to your rheumatologist.You can also begin consulting in person with board certified plastic surgeons to see if you're a good candidate for the procedure. Best of luck,Mats Hagstrom M.D.
