Is it safe for me to get a mommy makeover if I have Lupus Nephritis?

I do not think a patient who previously underwent dialysis is a good candidate for mommy makeover. Surgery is a big stress on the system and I would not want to push you back into a kidney problem. If anything, we would get all sorts of clearances to try to determine safety. Aesthetic surgery should really only be done under safe, ideal circumstances.

Dear Fantastic791928,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. You will need to get a clearance from your doctor prior to surgery. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Whether it’s safe for you to get a mommy makeover with Lupus Nephritis would depend on your individual health status and the recommendations of your healthcare provider. It’s crucial to consult with a medical professional who is familiar with your specific medical history and condition to discuss the potential risks and benefits of any surgical procedure.

Hi! Would recommend that you schedule an appointment with an experienced plastic surgeon for a thorough examination to determine the procedures that you can undergo. Also, you would need to obtain medical clearance, as lupus can manifest in various ways and can be of different severity and complexity.

Your safety is always the number one priority in surgery. You will want to begin by discussing your interest in a Mommy Makeover with your specialist. If given clearance you can then meet with a board certified plastic surgeon near you for a consultation.
