Is it okay to have Rhinoplasty during pregnancy?

Question

Elliot M. Heller, MD · Answer

No.  It is not reasonable to have any elective surgery during pregnancy.  The medications and anesthetics required could affect the fetus. We would not want to take any risks

William Portuese, MD · Answer

It is unacceptable to undergo any elective cosmetic surgery while you are pregnant. After the pregnancy is over, then consider performing the rhinoplasty procedure

Anh Lee, MD, FACS · Answer

You would be putting your unborn child at risk due to the anesthesia and surgical risks.  I would wait until months after you had the baby.

Steven J. Smith, MD · Answer

No.  It is not reasonable to have any "elective" surgery during pregnancy.  The medications and anesthetics required could affect the fetus and the stress of healing would add to the demands already placed on your body with the pregnancy.
