Can I have a "mommy makeover" with vonwillebrands disease?

You need to see a hematologist so they can properly evaluate you and stratify your risk for surgery.

You can but your surgery will need to be coordinated very closely with your hematologist. You would need to be done in a hospital setting (instead of just an ambulatory surgical center) and you will require certain medications before and after your surgery, along with careful monitoring. Best to openly discuss your history with your plastic surgeon so he or she can make the proper determination. Good luck!

Thank you for your question.  You would need to be optimized and cleared by a hematologist prior to your mommy makeover surgery.  Good luck.

Since you know and have been diagnosed  as having Von willibrands disease, then you have worked with a hematologist and should know what type of von willibrands disease you have.Type 1, type 2 or type 3.all Doctors are very aware of the disease. Since you had a gastric sleeve before, then you probably have a mild form (Type 1). You probably is not a candidate for elective surgery.Any surgery should be done in a major hospital center. A hematologist should be involved in the care and available immediately. The hospital should be made aware and stock on the medications and factor 8 infusion.This is true even for dental surgery.This discussion should be with your hematologist first. Then try to find the medical center and the plastic surgeon willing to operate under these circumstances.

Yes you can have surgery but it requires working closely with your hematologist. There are certain meds that may be required to be administered prior to surgery to put you at low risk prior to surgery and your hematologist will make that decision.
