Can you get Lipo and tummy tuck while on your menstrual cycle?

Question

Jose Perez-Gurri, MD, FACS · Answer

Yes. As a matter of fact a patients menstrual cycle may come the day of surgery or just a few days before  much to the patients' surprise. Under the stress of surgery hormonal changes can affect by either making it come earlier or a bit later than expected. We do not cancel surgery as a result of a patient having her menstrual cycle. Good luck, Dr PG

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

Yes.  I
would search for the board certified plastic surgeon who you feel is
most likely to give you the best results and who performs hundreds of
these procedures each year. I would look at patient reviews as well as
before and after photos on that surgeon's website.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA
