I am told that I have low blood pressure. According to my doctor, as long as I feel good and I'm not overly tired, this can be ok. My concern is that it might have an affect on a tummy tuck I have been considering. Will it cause slow wound healing, poor blood flow, etc?

Answer: Blood pressure and plastic surgery Before having any elective surgery, especially plastic surgery, it is very important that you have medical clearance to ensure that there is no medical reason that may complicate your surgery or your recovery. As long as all is well and you are medically optimized, then you should do well. Good luck.

Answer: Tummy tuck with low blood pressure It really depends on how low is your blood pressure. Typically, a low blood pressure does not preclude a tummy tuck procedure. You blood pressure can be improved by taking fluid after the surgery. You just need to make sure that your red blood cell count is not too low.
