Can I commence using Melanotan 2 now? I am 2 weeks post op after having BA.

Question

I have been using melanotan 2, for one year now. I am 2 weeks post op after having breast augmentations. Can I commence using melanotan 2 now? I was advised to stop 7 days before my procedure, as I did, but would like to resume to maintain my bronze colour. Obviously mindful not to expose scars and keep dosage minimal.

You should check with your surgeon but I believe it should be safe to resume that medication 2 weeks after breast augmentation surgery.

Christopher J. Davidson, MD, FACS · Answer

Thank you for your question.  Post operative instructions do vary from one plastic surgeon to another.  I advise my patients to avoid blood thinning medications for two weeks prior and two weeks following surgical procedures.  Best to discuss your medications with your plastic surgeon.  Good luck.

Dear  kaffir2,every plastic surgeon has his own postoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.Daniel Barrett, MD
