Usually Yes.: Generally speaking, most patients who have had renal transplants are able to proceed with cosmetic surgery. Best to check with your nephrologist and/or transplant surgeon prior to proceeding. These doctors know your situation best are able to advise you whether or not to proceed; they may also have suggestions as to how to best manage your perioperative care. Best wishes.
