What herbal medicine should be avoided before breast augmentation surgery?

It is always best to discuss all medications including over the counter and supplemental medications that you take with your surgeon. If in doubt if a non essential medication could be detrimental during surgery, it is best to err on the side of caution and discontinue it. Your surgeon will help guide you.

I advise my patients to stop all herbals before breast augmentation surgery. This action creates certainty in avoiding medications that can cause bleeding. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author. RealSelf Distinguished Hall of Fame Inductee. Philadelphia, Pa., USA

Thank you so much for your question, a very important one.
I advise my patients to stop all herbal supplements as well as those containing turmeric, ginger and garlic, at least a week before surgery, to avoid excess bleeding and bruising.
If you are taking anything in particular, whether herbal or not, be sure to ask your board certified surgeon.
All the best.
