In my experience herpes breakouts do not affect breast augmentation surgery unless there is a bacterial infection on top of the herpes breakout, but to be safe you should be discussing this with you own surgeon who will be responsible for your safety.
You should be able to proceed with the breast augmentation. Please inform your surgeon to discuss further.
Hello, having genital herpes is not necessarily a contraindication to surgery, but I would recommend speaking to your plastic surgeon. They are aware of your overall medical health, any other medications you are taking, etc.
To be perfectly safe it is my opinion that you should have your breast augmentation when you are clear of on ongoing heretic lesion. The surgery should be performed with antibiotic and antiviral coverage. This is the safest merhod for you.
You need to discuss this with your surgeon and anesthesiologist. Likely it will be fine but definitely check with them.
Most likely yes, but several people have a decision in this issue, and the operating surgeon generally has the final say. The anesthesiologist and facility would need to know as well, and the facility (i.e. the hospital or surgicenter) would place you on "contact precautions" if you are deemed potentially contagious. Since this outbreak is not a systemic issue or is distant from the surgery site, I would personally feel comfortable as long as you are in the middle of your treatment or have recently completed your treatment and have no open ulcers.
You likely will be fine taking Valtrex to calm down your outbreak.Notify your surgeon and also alert the anesthetist when you meet him/her.
Hello and thank you for your excellent question. It sounds as though you have a breast animation deformity. If the implant is in the wrong position, or if there is abnormal scarring around it, you can have issues similar to the ones you describe. I suggest that you seek in-person evaluation ...
Thank you for your question.At 5 weeks, you are still very early in the healing process. I agree I do not see much change in implant position, but I would not worry at this point. You have a large implant in place and it takes a while for the body to get used to that and relax around it. Over...
While it is quite normal for each breast to heal/drop at it's own rate, the fact that you have increased pain and discomfort on the one side is troubling. I would suggest that you schedule an appointment with your surgeon so that he or she can examine you in person. Best of luck --
