What lab work needs to be done before I get a tummy tuck, breast augmentation and chin lipo?

if you are otherwise healthy, often all that is needed is a blood count. If you are over 55 years old, I usually require an EKG. Your plastic surgeon will determine what workup you should have, and may vary widely from what I mentioned above.

Thank you for your question. The lab work for each patient is unique and depends on their medical background, age and other factors. Your surgeon should have your medical information in order to let you know which exams you need to get done. The most common labs required for surgery are Complete Blood Count (CBC), Prothrombin Time (PT), Partial Thromboplastin Time (PTT).That said, you definitely have to choose your surgeon correctly and make sure that he/she has the training and experience to meet your goals with absolute safety.  Best is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with specialized expertise in this procedure.

Requested lab work will vary by surgeon and patient.  Standard labs will include a pregnancy test on the day of surgery for all females of childbearing age.  If you are diabetic your blood sugar will also be checked.  Any labs prior to your surgical day will be determined by your surgeon.
