Answer: Is it safe to get a mommy makeover if I am a post kidney transplant patient? Thank you for the question. Having had a kidney transplant in the past is not an absolute contraindication to mommy makeover surgery. However you should carefully weigh the pros and cons of the procedure (as well as the potential risks and complications that MAY be increased in your situation) and consult with your medical doctors prior to proceeding with the surgery. I would have specific concerns about the use of immunosuppressants... Ultimately, I think it will likely be your decision whether the increased risk associated with your medical history and your current medications is worth the potential benefits of the procedures under consideration. I hope this helps.

Answer: Mommy makeover after kidney transplant That is an interesting question. Being on immune suppression medications does not 100% prevent you from having either a TT or breast augmentation. The amount and type of medications and your overall health would be a bigger picture to consider. It stands to reason that you may be at an elevated risk of complications given your physiology. Whether this risk is small or large or worth taking will be up to your doctors to determine and for you to decide in the end. If the decision is hard to make either by you or your doctors, I might encourage you to consider getting the breast augmentation first since it is a smaller surgery and with potentially more manageable complications as opposed to a TT and breast augmentation at the same time.Good luck on your mommy makeover journey.Dr. Remus Repta
