Answer: Preoperative supplements 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). Robert Singer, MD FACS La Jolla, California

Answer: Health Juice Hello,There is nothing in that juice that is superior in providing your body health as whole fruits and vegetables. No one knows what's in the additives like the nettle oil, so it's safest to stop. Your health will not suffer. Best of luck!

Answer: Preoperative instructions Dear np888,every plastic surgeon has preoperative instructions which he recommends to his patients. Most plastic surgeons would not restrict you from drinking your healthy juice but to be sure I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.

Answer: Health juice before surgery The only ingredient I see to be a problem is ginger. I have a number of my own patients that love Kombucha drinks which are often mixed with ginger and have found an increased bleeding and bruising effect. I usually review this with my patients and have them stop any possible herbs that can thin the blood like ginger at least 2 weeks before surgery. Your surgeon may have their own list of herbs and supplements that should be avoided and you should check with them now to give yourself enough time to be off any herbs, vitamins or supplements that could effect the surgery.

Answer: Health Juice before Rhinoplasty Dear np888, I would speak with your surgeons office and see what their pre-operative instructions are. Many herbs can cause bleeding and those would need to be reviewed. My anesthesiologist reviews all medications, herbs, or supplements the patients are on and determines whether they are to be continued or discontinued prior to surgery. Personally the pineapple, orange, ginger and lemon juices would be fine however better safe then sorry I would likely stop the other additives. Again your surgeon can advise you of his/her practices. Best regards, Michael V. Elam, M.D.
