Hello, I am 67, female, 5', 100lbs, very fit, healthy, eat healthily, exercise, dancer, do not drink or smoke, look younger than my age. I want to have a face lift of lower face/neck and wondering if having SVT is an issue. I typically have about 4 episodes per year. Thank you.

Answer: Facelifts and SVT We would want cardiac clearance from your cardiologist but otherwise you should be fine to have a facelift in our fully Medicare certified surgery center. We would keep you overnight in our center to monitor you which is a huge advantage of using such a high level accredited center

Answer: Cardiac Clearance is a Good Idea Although based on your history, you are most likely a good surgical candidate, it would be prudent to see a Cardiologist prior to surgery. Asymptomatic SVT is easily treatable, but a more complete workup is required. If you are symptomatic (chest pain, shortness of breath) related to your condition, perhaps surgery isn't the best option.
