Answer: A vegan diet is fine A vegan diet is fine as long as your get the adequate amount of protein and vitamins. Most adults need between 70 - 90 grams of protein daily, which is plenty to heal from BBL surgery. There are many vegan sources of protein: vegetables, soy milk, nuts and nut butters, lentils and quinoa to name a few. You actually may have others that you favor. My advice is share your concern with your plastic surgeon, and I’m certain he/she will guide to their specific recommendations. All the best.

Answer: Vegan Patient Having a BBL Thanks for your question! There is no reason that someone who eats a vegan diet can not have a BBL. For all patients who have BBL it is important to take in enough calories after the procedure so that you do not lose weight and lose the fat that was transferred to the buttocks. It will also be important for you to find alternate sources of protein so that you are getting enough protein to heal after the surgery. Remember always discuss concerns such as this with your board certified plastic surgeon. Best of luck with your procedure and recovery!

Answer: Can I be a vegan and get BBL surgery? Yes. I recommend that my patients take 100 grams of protein each day during the healing phase for the first six weeks following surgery. This protein can be in the form of manufactured premier protein shakes, plant protein, or optimum whey protein added to milk or water. The objective is not weight gain but promotion of healing. All the best!Kenneth Hughes, ABPS Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA
