After healing from a staph infection about a month ago, can I still have a Brazilian butt lift right after?

Question

I recently had a staph infection and I was on doxycycline to help treat it. I also used organic apple cider vinegar and coconut oil to help treat the boils. It's been about a month since I've healed and I was wondering if it's safe to get a Brazilian butt lift right away? If not, how long should I wait until it's okay to do the procedure??

The issue at hand is if there has been clinical resolution, which will require an exam and evaluation.  You can have an excellent result and your goals can be realized.  Please

thousands of procedures with hundreds of before and after pictures and 
hundreds of positive reviews.  Kenneth Hughes, MDBeverly Hills, CA

I would be careful going into a big procedure like this with out taking some extra precautions. Check the flora of your skin and use hibiclens or chlorhexidene to change your skin flora. You should be ok after this
