I was born with a first degree av block and was concern if I could still have my bbl done?
Answer: AV block and BBL surgery Dear Intelligent816, as long as you get a clearance from your cardiologist, you might be a candidate for a 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.

Answer: Is it possible to have a BBL done if I have a first-degree atrioventricular block? Hello. Great question. In order to be a possible candidate, you will need to get medical clearance from your physician. When you have completed that portion, I will suggest visiting a board certified plastic surgeon for a detailed examination.

Answer: Is it possible to have a BBL done if I have a first-degree atrioventricular block? It is best to be safe. Most PS will recommend that you see a cardiologist for clearance for surgery. If the cardiologist says no, then it is not safe to go forward. If the cardiologist says yes (they may even give recommendations on how to optimize your situation), then you should be good to go. I get clearance on every patient that has any medical conditions such as diabetes or high blood pressure etc just to be safe AND all patients over the age of 45 (as medical problems can be undiagnosed at this age).

Answer: BBL with congenital AV block you should still be able to have a BBL. You may want to ask your internist or cardiologist for medical clearance. You could explain that during the procedure you may receive a fairly high dose of a drug called epinephrine. The epinephrine affect is usually fairly subtle and I do not anticipate it would be an issue for you. Best, Mats Hagstrom MD
