Am I still able to undergo a BBL if I have an autoimmune disease?

March 5, 2021
Asked By:Sof27

I'm a 25 y/o woman and was diagnosed with mixed connective tissue disease over a year ago. I was on medication but stopped taking it shortly after because I no longer felt pain in my joints. I'm not on any medication and I feel fine, also other than having MCTD I am healthy. I'm debating getting a BBL, but to make a decision I'd like to know if it is safe for me to get one. I inquired two places about getting this procedure, one doctor turned me down due to my condition but the other one didn't.
