Can I get a MMR vaccine after a Tummy Tuck and Breast Augmentation?

Question

On July 31st I got a tummy tuck and breast augmentation done. I need a vaccine for a job that has to be done and cleared for September 1st. Can it be done if so when is it OK?

Earl Stephenson, Jr., MD, DDS, MBA · Answer

I think you should be okay to get your vaccine for your job prior to your surgery. I deathly would ask your plastic surgeon his or her opinion concerning that.

John Sampson, MD (license obligations) · Answer

I cannot think of any reason to not have vaccinations after tummy tuck or breast augmentations.you can proceed. Good luck with your new job.

Gaurav Bharti, MD, FACS · Answer

It should be fine for you to get normal vaccinations, and I agree that you should check in with your surgeon.  Good Luck to you.

C. Bob Basu, MD, MPH, FACS · Answer

You should be fine to proceed with your vaccination before your deadline.  Best to ask your plastic surgeon about his/her specific recommendations.
