Are probiotics essential after liposuction and a BBL?

Question

I had liposuction on March 15th and I want to make sure I'm putting back all the nutrients I need back in body. Are probiotics necessary to use in addition to the antibiotics prescribed?

Steven Wallach, MD · Answer

I do not recommend any specific supplements except for Vitamin C and  MVI.   Your surgeon is the one to ask.

Shain A. Cuber, MD · Answer

There is no need for probiotics after the surgery unless you feel that it helps you. Sometimes when antibiotics are taken, they can cause yeast infections in women. Taking a probiotic can help ease the symptoms of this common problem. In addition, if you are taking a prescription pain medication that is causing constipation, probiotics can help with those symptoms as well.  Consult your doctor to see their recommendation.
