I have hidradenitis, can I have a BBL done?

hello thank you for your question and provided information as well.. depends on the severity of the pathology, my recommendation is that you be seen by your doctor first to evaluate that your condition is suitable for a surgery, and then be evaluated by your plastic surgeon.

There are biologic, immune
modulating, and surgical treatments for Hidradenitis. In my office, we
begin by controlling the onset of HS and the longterm scarring is
mitigated. Treatments for hidradenitis scarring are many including
topical treatment protocols and laser therapy.

Best,

Dear celesteb33,it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.Daniel Barrett, MD

Hi dear, thank you for your question. Depends on how grave it is or if it's causing severe issues in your skin, it may be a problem when healing after the procedure due to the delicacy this surgery has. I recommend having a face to face consult with a board certified plastic surgeon who can give you a proper assessment of your case and discuss which are the best options for you. Dr. Jimenez Toribio Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon.
