How soon can I get BBL surgery after covid infection?

Thank you for your answer. There are already protocols on patients that had COVID that are going to get elective surgery, specifically Plastic surgery. The waiting time depends on the symptoms and recovery process from them; it could be from 2 weeks to 6 months. I recomend to discuss this with your plastic surgeon

Hi, thank you for sharing your question. You should wait 8 weeks after your symptoms have resolved to avoid any complications associated with Covid, particularly a pro inflammatory state.

Hello @china562 thank you for your question. Protocols for covid vary depending on each doctor or practice. This is a virus that we are still learning about so the measures change according to the new variants, what each state mandates. I suggest that you speak directly with your specialist for guidance. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Dear china562,
every plastic surgeon has his own preoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.

Best is to see your primary care MD or infectious disease MD for a written clearance fir general anesthesia. In general terms with a negative test fir CoVid and no pulmonary symptoms most are OK to have surgery. Usually about 2 weeks post infective phase. YES new labs are required! Best to use only private practice boarded Plastic Surgeons NOT a clinic based one! You can virtual consult with....

Each surgeon will have their own protocol and I suppose to some extent it depends on what type of symptoms each person has.
Bum may require a negative test while others may need a certain number of days of waiting.
Yeah surgery scheduled and then you should ask your provider.
