Camille Cash, MD · Answer

This question is best answered by your surgeon who is most familiar with the details of your surgery and how you've been progressing through recovery.  Typically you should be able to resume all prior medications at this point.

Hello,
Generally, you can begin taking it shortly after your procedure. Stopping the medication prior to the procedure is the most important. I suggest reaching out to your surgeon and seeing what they suggest you do.

Typically this medication can be resumed shortly after your liposuction procedure, but it is essential to first discuss this with your plastic surgeon, as they will be able to provide personalized advice based on your specific circumstances.

Justin Yovino, MD, FACS · Answer

I don’t have patients stop it for these procedures especially because it’s performed under local anesthesia. If everything is healing well and they want to start it, I give them the green light. Check with your surgeon.

Warren Schutte, MD · Answer

I would contact your physician for his/her preference on restarting the medication. You do want to consume healthy and abundant calories during any post op healing course.
