Is collagen safe to take before and after surgery? I will be having a TT, lipo, and bbl?
Answer: Supplements Before Surgery I generally ask my patients to stop all supplements 10 days before surgery and 10 days after. Multi-vitmains are fine as are collagen supplements. It is always best however to check with your plastics surgeon to determine what your surgeons thoughts are.Hope that helps.

Answer: Is collagen safe to take before and after surgery? Supplements may contain a variety of substances that can cause problems with blood coagulation and with anesthesia. It is recommended that all herbal supplements be stopped 2 weeks before elective surgery. You should discuss what medications, supplements, and vitamins you are taking, both prescription and over the counter, with your plastic surgeon and have him or her decide what you should and should not be taking. Your surgeon should be certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and ideally a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS).

Answer: Safety of Collagen Supplements Before and After TT, Lipo, and BBL Each plastic surgeon will present patients with pre and post-operative guidelines specifying medications, supplements, vitamins, herbs, and etc. to refrain from using before and after surgery. You should follow you plastic surgeon's advice. I advise my patients to STOP ALL sources of Vitamin E, e.g., Vitamin E pills, multivitamins, Slim Fast Ensure Plus, all herbs, e.g. Ginko, Garlic, Ginseng, Natural or health preparations e.g. bee’s pollen, protein powders, and supplements 1 week before surgery.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Answer: Collagen supplements In my experience I have not had issues with patients taking collagen. However, talk with your surgeon and let him or her know what you are taking. He or she may want lab-work to ensure that your electrolytes are within normal limits for surgery. Communication is key!
