I had Gallbladder removal May 18
Answer: How long after gallbladder removal is it possible to get a BBL and Rhinoplasty? Hello and thank you for your question and sharing your photos. Assuming your surgery was done laparoscopically and your recovery has been uneventful and you are cleared by your general surgeon, you should be able to have your elective surgery in 3 months or so. I would seek consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon for a full evaluation and advice. Best, Pejman Aflaki, M.D. Johns Hopkins-trained double board-certified plastic surgeon

Answer: Waiting time Dear Alinicardona, you should be fully healed prior to surgery. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

I would recommend waiting six months between surgeries, but remember that it all depends on your health and lab tests. l suggest you make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon to talk about your goals and anything you need to know. Good luck :)

Answer: Surgery after cholecystectomy I’m going to assume the cholecystectomy was done laparoscopically. Based on that you should probably wait 3 to 6 months. Six months is on the conservative side and some plastic surgeons would recommend that long.If you had an open cholecystectomy (big scar) then you should wait six months for sure.You could probably safely have a BBL even sooner. The rhinoplasty is somewhat irrelevant to your previous gallbladder removal.Best, Mats Hagstrom MD
