I accidentally without thinking took 2 advil pm and I am having Rhinoplasty on Wednesday. How big of a deal is this?!

Dear memyers1,Thank you for your question. Advil can increase bleeding during surgery and bruising during post operative healing. It is best to let your operating surgeon know that you took the Advil! Best of luck!

Hello,Thanks for your question. Taking the Advil does make you more likely to bleed during surgery. While the amount of surgical dissection for rhinoplasty is small, excess blood under the skin after surgery can leave can negatively affect the cosmetic outcome. I would discuss this with your surgeon to be safe.Good luck,Dr. Shah

Thank you for your question. Advil can increase bruising and bleeding. The best thing to do is let your Plastic Surgeon know. Best of luck!Dhaval M. PatelDouble Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Hoffman Estates Barrington Oakbrook Chicago
