Can I still have a Tummy Tuck, lipo and BBL if I have asthma? (Photo)

January 8, 2015
Asked By:amnowlin in Saint Martinville, LA

I will be having a tummy tuck, lipo, and bbl on February 5th. I have asthma, but I do not take medication for it. I am concerned with not being able to breath after my tummy tuck. If I don't get the muscle repair, will it make it easier to breath post op? Considering, I will be having the lipo AND BBL, will my results be ok? I have had one child, but am hoping for more in the future, and I have lost about 70 lbs. Will getting rid of the skin and fat make a significant difference?
