Bacterial vaginosis 1 week prior to surgery. Will I have to postpone?

Thanks for your question!
Reach out to your surgeon for his/her guidelines/ protocol concerning an active infection. Since you are on antibiotics already it should be fine. Best wishes!

Dear Fierce232087,
you should be healthy prior to elective procedure. But 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.

With any active infection, it is common for surgery to be postponed until the infection clears. This is for the safety of the patient. Please let your surgeon know so that they can determine what would be safest to do for you.

This question is best answered by your surgeon as opinions may vary. Ideally you should be free from infection when undergoing breast augmentation. If a delay is needed it will likely be only for a short time.

Hello, the placement of breast implants may be a not so complex procedure, and routine for trained and experienced plastic surgeons, but this does not mean that we should minimize the fact that it is a surgery, and if you have an infection, it can affect your entire immune system and even predispose you to an infection in the breast area, it is better that you are healthy, and have your surgery. Thank you
