How long after having COVID and clearing the infection can I have my BBL?

Question

Curious to know if there is a wait time between recovering from COVID and plastic surgery. (26 years old)

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

Early research suggests that it could take 2 weeks for your body to get over a mild illness, or up to 6 weeks for severe or critical cases. Recovery varies for different people, depending on your age and overall health. Fatigue, headache, and trouble breathing were the symptoms most likely to linger.CDC guidelines say that if you’ve been diagnosed with COVID, you should isolate yourself at home until all of these things are true: (1) You have had no fever for 24 hours without using a fever-reducing medicine. (2) Your symptoms are better, though they might not be totally gone. (3) It’s been at least 10 days since your symptoms started.
The plastic surgeon who will be performing your procedure will have protocols in place for approving you for surgery.

Dear round2babygurl, protocols may vary from surgeon to surgeon, keeping this in mind you should discuss this with your certified plastic surgeon. Make sure you go on consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Hope this helps and best of lucks. Dr. Luis Mejia.

Dear round2babygurl0
every plastic surgeon has his own preoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.

Hello dear!! 
Thanks for the question and provided information as well. Please talk to your primary doctor to get clearance for plastic surgery and then I suggest you book a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss the best options for your goals. 
Hope this is helpful. Good luck :)
