Would you perform lipo on a patient in stage 3 kidney disease?

Thank you for your question.Cosmetic Plastic Surgery is elective and should never be undertaken if the risks out way the benefits.Much more information would be needed. Your overall health, a clearance letter from your nephrologist, your anatomy, realistic expectations.I would begin with a preoperative clearance from your nephrologist. Then make a appointment with a Bd. Cert. Plastic Surgeon who ideally is a member of the Am. Soc. for Aesthestic Surgery (denoting by membership having met additional Critera and a focus on Cosmetic Plastic Surgery)My best,

Good question, but i would have to say no. Patients with 3 stage of kidney disease are on a very high risk life level for liposuction surgery patient candidate have to be in good medical health by their physician or specialist before undergoing any type of plastic surgery.
