Hello I am hoping for some help from a Dr I've recently found out I have high platelet count 1066 I see a blood specialist they have ran blood work blood work came back normal so now they're doing further investigation by having a biopsy with my bone marrow I was just wondering is having a breast augmentation and a 360 BBL surgery still possible? I have asked my blood specialist but he doesn't know can someone help
Answer: High platelet count. Is it still possible to have a breast augmentation and 360 BBL surgery? As you are in the middle of testing, it is best to complete that and determine the reason for the high platelet count before proceeding with surgery. Your safety is always the number one priority. Once cleared by your specialist we welcome you to visit us in our Houston office for a consultation!

Answer: High Platelet Count Hi and thank you for your question. A Brazilian buttocks lift is an elective surgery. If you are in the midst of a workup for thrombocytosis, and a bone marrow biopsy is pending, you will need to wait to discover the results of that workup before you can have your surgery.

Answer: Plastic surgery and high platelet count Hello and thank you for your question. The short answer is yes. It is possible to have elective cosmetic surgery. Having sad that, I would wait until all the diagnostic studies are done and and a diagnosis is made. Then see a board-certified plastic surgeon for a consultation. Your plastic surgeon will likely consult with your hematologist for advice on perioperative management. Best,Pejman Aflaki, M.D.Double board-certified plastic surgeon

Answer: Surgical candidate Great question! I always get a clearance from an internist for every patient that undergoes surgery. Once your blood doctor finishes all the testing they need to do, I would see an internal medicine physician to clear you for surgery. Once that happens then you should be safe to proceed.Best of luck and hope this information helps!

Answer: Breast augmentation with abnormal labs The good news is that you found out about the abnormal labs before you're all set for surgery. Obviously, you will want to do everything that you can to find out why your platelets are so high. Ultimately, you will hope to have them lowered by the time of surgery, but there are options that would still allow you to have surgery and medically manage your risks around the time of surgery. So complete your work-up and recognize that very likely you are still going to be able to have the surgery that you desire. Make sure to choose a plastic surgeon that is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and that uses an accredited surgical facility with and MD anesthesiologist. This is the safest that you can possible by with surgery. Good luck, and I wish you well.
