I had major hemorrhaging and 3 blood transfusions after giving birth to my 10th child in January. Do I qualify for a BBL?

Question

I would like a Brazilian Butt Lift

Daniel Barrett, MD · Answer

Dear Lan.Bai29,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination and knowing the right cause of your hemorrhage. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Thank you for your question. The haemorrhage after childbirth may not be a contraindication for a BBL or other cosmetic procedures. You will, of course, need to be evaluated by your primary care and a Plastic surgeon.. Please find an experienced Board certified Plastic surgeon who can examine you and help you with all your concerns. All the best!

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

The Association of Women's Health, Obstetric, and Neonatal Nurses (AWHONN) developed the Postpartum Hemorrhage Risk Assessment Tool to help clinicians recognize women who are at risk for hemorrhage. If you are in good health and have a BMI of 30 or below, and your OBGYN can provide clearance, you may qualify for a BBL.

Unless you have a bleeding disorder previous bleeding from childbirth should not have anything to do with getting a BBL.
