My search has begun for my bbl doctor. I've noticed its so many great doctors and with reviewing everyone personal experience its making me hard to choose lol!

However, being a Out of Town patient has become tricky with, Where shall I stay...., transportation, should I bring a friend and so on.

While receiving consultation and researching by myself I've discovered some useful information and would like to share with everyone.

Q&A
-Out of town patients should fly in a 2-3 days before surgery. Why you ask?

There is a health risk involved in transcontinental flight combined with surgery. The flight over, the surgery and the flight back all carry some increase risk of deep vein blood clot formation and pulmonary embolism. I believe the risk of blood clot and pulmonary embolism would be reduced by staying two or three days before and after any surgery. (This is from one of the Dr. I had a consultation with)

So this explains why doctors ask us to come a couple of days before.

I believe it's wonderful that we want to have these wonderful bodies but we need understand the process.

If any other patient received useful information, please share.

Really good tips, ChicagoClient. Are you def. going to Miami for your op?

I'd be really hesitant to fly to surgery. Maybe that's just me, but you have to sit for at least the whole flight, plus whatever delays, etc. And I don't trust TSA not to wonder why I'm walking funny! LOL It seems like a train or even a car (w/ a friend driving) would be easier, and you could lay down, take breaks, etc. I guess that depends where you live though. I wouldn't want to spend a whole day or two in a car either, vs. a short flight.

I'm flying in a day before surgery... Now you got me concerned. Do you mind sharing which doctor made these recommendations? Also, can you elaborate more as to why your body needs 2-3 days after flying before surgery? Does it matter if it's a very short flight like 2.5 hrs? Thanks for the information!

I flew in the day before surgery and I had no complications.

@BBLNikki it might just be for very long flights because this consultation was for a Dr. in Cali. Dr.H

Best of luck to you. I wished I could help, but I'm still in the saving my money phase.
