Can having low calcium stop me from having liposuction/BBL?

Dear Tany88,
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.

Having low calcium levels can potentially impact your eligibility for certain surgical procedures, including liposuction and Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL). Calcium is a crucial mineral for various bodily functions, and maintaining a balance is essential for overall health. Here are some considerations:1. Blood Clotting and Bone Health: Calcium plays a vital role in blood clotting, and maintaining an appropriate level is important to minimize the risk of excessive bleeding during surgery. Additionally, calcium is essential for bone health, and low levels may affect bone density.2. Medical Evaluation: Before undergoing any elective surgery, including liposuction or Brazilian Butt Lift, your surgeon will conduct a thorough medical evaluation. This evaluation may include blood tests to assess various parameters, including calcium levels.3. Surgeon's Assessment: The surgeon will consider your overall health, medical history, and lab results to determine if you are a suitable candidate for the procedure. If your calcium levels are low, the surgeon may work with you and potentially your primary care physician to address this issue before proceeding with surgery.4. Risk Management: Low calcium levels could increase the risk of complications during and after surgery. Surgeons prioritize patient safety, and they may delay or recommend against the procedure until any underlying medical issues, such as low calcium levels, are addressed.It's important to communicate openly with your surgeon about your overall health, including any known medical conditions or concerns. They will guide you through the pre-operative assessment process and provide recommendations based on your individual health status.Always follow the advice of your plastic surgeon to ensure a safe and successful surgical experience. If you have concerns about your calcium levels or any other health-related issue, consult with your plastic surgeon before proceeding with elective cosmetic surgery.

Low calcium levels alone would not necessarily prevent you from having liposuction. However, before undergoing any surgical procedure, it’s important to be in good overall health. Low calcium levels can be a sign of an underlying medical issue, and your surgeon would likely assess your overall health as part of the pre-operative evaluation.
If you have low calcium levels, your surgeon may want to address this issue before proceeding with liposuction to ensure your body can handle the surgery and recover effectively. Always follow your healthcare provider’s advice when considering any surgical procedure.

If your calcium is not too low and you are having no issues, then you should be able to proceed with surgery. Otherwise, please check with your medical doctor.

Depends on how low your calcium is??? Best to ask the chosen operative surgeon, unless you are using a clinic setting. Then for sure you will be cancelled! But you need to be sure the new rules in Florida for ultrasound guided BBL are being used... Best virtual consult with....
