Will I be ok for surgery?
Aspirin greatly reduces your bodies ability to form clots and prevent bleeding. Even a small amount of excess bleeding in the implant pocket increases your chances of developing a capsular contracture that may require additional surgery.It is important to remember that this is an elective procedure-you want all factors optimized for the best outcome. If you were my patient I would insist on waiting at least another week before proceeding- the risk on needing additional surgery is too great.I hope this helps
If you're willing to take a little bit of a chance, then you could go forward with the surgery. That said, I generally am very conservative and would delay the surgery for another couple of weeks... I know that's not what you'd really like to hear, but..."better to be safe, than sorry". Make a good decision!
