Ibuprofen Intake Post Plastic Surgery Procedure?

Advil should be ok in the post op period following a liposuction where the chance of bleeding is minimal. Some PS's will disagree with this. I won't use Advil following a flap type procedure like a tummy tuck or facelift.

Ibuprofen should definitely be avoided at least one week prior to surgery.  After surgery, there are different opinions.  My feeling is to wait a week before taking it.  For pain control I prefer narcotics.  For swelling, I don't think it does enough to justify risk of bruising.
