When should I stop topical minoxidil before lipo? I know it plays a part in blood pressure, so I’m guessing I need to stop applying it before surgery.
Answer: Minoxidil and liposuction there is no reason to stop topical treatments before liposuction at all, I suggest you speak to your doctor sand ensure you get aftercare (see link). Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Preoperative protocol Dear nadiaxoxo, every plastic surgeon has his own preoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.

Answer: Medication and liposuction If you’ve chosen a plastic surgeon than your medical history it should’ve been discussed during the consultation. If it wasn’t Discussed you should contact your provider and review your medication with him or her before your surgery. If you’ve not chosen a provider I suggest having multiple in person consultations for the local experienced board-certified plastic surgeons who have extensive experience with liposuction. During the consultation they should review your medication‘s and give you preop instructions. Personally I see no reason to stop minoxidil. Best, Mats Hagstrom MD
