Question

Sacha Obaid, MD · Answer

Hello and thank you for your question.  It is recommended that you consult a board certified plastic surgeon.  Each surgeon has their own protocol on HCG diet pre-cooperatively.  In my practice, I have my patient's stop their HCG diet 4 weeks prior and 6 weeks after surgery.  This will ensure adequate nutrition and healing of the wounds.  Best of luck!
