5’7 feet tall, 196 pounds, 31 years of age. I had a bbl procedure over 4 years ago, and would like to have round 2 BBL. In November of 2019, I had an pulmonary embolism which was treated and my scans have been cleared and haven’t taken any anticoagulants(eliquis) in over 16 months- will it be okay for me to have a round 2 bbl ?
Answer: Round 2 BBL after pulmonary embolism? Regardless of what surgery you are considering, you will need medical clearance from your primary care doctor. That being said, with a BMI over 30, procedures such as BBL may carry an increased risk of blood clots and pulmonary embolism and/or fat pulmonary embolism inherent to BBL. You may want to consider a relatively safer and permanent option such as buttock implants. Please note, an extremely few number of board-certified plastic surgeons specialize in buttock implants so you may have to travel far and away from home to seek consultation with this particular type of specialist. Glad to be of help.

Answer: Pulmonary embolism and elective surgery Any surgical procedure done under general anesthesia increases the risk of developing blood clots including deep venous thrombosis that could lead to a second pulmonary embolism.
