Will being a vegetarian affect healing after Brazilian Butt Lift & Tummy Tuck? could it affect the "quality of my fat? (photos)

Thanks for your pictures. A very strict vegetarian diet(no meat) could be a problem because of the lack of protein. More than likely your healing should be fine. A tummy tuck will serve you well but you do not have enough fat to achieve your desired result. Earl Stephenson Jr MD DDS FACS

A well balanced diet with complete proteins, independent of origin, will allow for appropriate healing.Find a board certified plastic surgeon who performs hundreds of Brazilian buttlifts and
liposuction procedures each year. Look for great reviews and great

and after pictures.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Judging by your photos, you would be a great candidate for a BBL / tummy-tuck combination. A vegetarian diet should not affect the outcome, as long as you are healthy and consuming a balanced diet.

Thank you for your question and photos. Search for a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. Base on your photos a tummy tuck would be a better procedure for you now, for the BBL you need fat donor. 

you can have a perfectly balanced diet with out consuming animal proteins. Being a vegetarian should not effect your results

Obtain pre operative blood tests to determine if there are any issues so they can be addressed..////

Being a vegetarian is not a problem. I have a lot of patients that are vegan and vegetarian. Good luck with your decision to move forward.

Thank you for your question. A vegetarian diet should not affect healing after surgery as long as you have enough protein in your diet. You should have a well balanced diet with vitamins supplementation if needed. Good luck.

You will heal fine.  Of course you must get adequate protein in your diet but vegetarians understand that.  In addition it never hurts to take a one a day mega vitamin tablet.   Like any other diet, the vetarian diet must be well balanced in its own right.  Hope this helps.  My Best,  Dr C
