Is my blood pressure too high for a face/neck lift?

Having stable blood pressure of 130 and bellow, is most important factor to consider before face and neck surgery. That is something that you have to do with help of your internist (cardiologist) and plastic surgeon. Intraoperative and postoperative bleeding is most frequent and unwanted complication in this fine, detail dependent surgery. Good luck, you are almost there.

Thank you for the question. Your blood pressure is still on the higher side, and your priority should be to get it under better control. Hypertension predisposed to postoperative bleeding.

Your readings do not necessarily preclude surgery. It’s best to continue working with your doctor to control your blood pressure. He might want to add back one other medication, but otherwise your second reading is almost in acceptable range. You’re getting there…keep working with your doctor.

You need a full assessment prior to proceeding with any cosmetic treatment. Seek out a facial sculpting expert for your concerns.

Yes indeed, those numbers are still too high and you're putting yourself at significant risk for a hematoma after a face and neck lift. Is very important get your blood pressure under control before undergoing elective cosmetic surgery

Sounds like you are NOT under good bp control. Best to return to see your internist and get under better bp control before thinking about any facial surgery.
