If you have hepatitis c are you still able to get a BBL in the 360 lipo?

Question

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

If there is no organ damage or organ repercussion from the hepatitis C, the procedure could be considered.

Matthew J. Nykiel, MD · Answer

Hello and Great Question. I appreciate the time you are spending researching this procedure. My name is Dr. Matthew J. Nykiel. I am a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, a Fellowship Trained Cosmetic Surgeon, and a Butt Augmentation Specialis
Having Hepatitis C does not prevent you from having a BBL as long as your overall health is good. A BBL would consist of lipo 360 and a fat transfer to your hips/butt giving you more of an hourglass figure. I would definitely recommend doing an in person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon who specializes in this procedure and who can suggest what is needed. 
I hope that helps! Best of 
Luck!

Hello! Thank you for your question. Patients with Hepatits C could have plastic surgery done, however I don't recommend it. Surgery (of any kind) implies some level of stress and trauma to the body, even in completely healthy patients complications can occur. Your health and well being will always be a priority, and because plastic surgery is elective, if you already have a chronic medical condition I wouldn't recommend going through surgery.

Zoran Potparic, MD · Answer

Such a chronic infection is not a contraindication for elective surgery like BBL providing that you are in overall good health. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon and evaluation by your PCP and/or ID specialist will help. Good luck.

Dear Glorious4239,
Hepatitis C is not a contraindication for surgery.  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.
