I am about 80 lbs overweight and do not have high bp or any health concerns. is it possible to still have plastic surgery?

Stable weight best: It is still possible to have plastic surgery and still be overweight, the most important factor is to be at a stable weight. Your plastic surgeon will discuss the added risk of complications associated with being overweight.

Overweight : Your surgeon can best help you with this but you increase the rate of complications with several types of procedures with a bmi over 34. For an elective procedure i listen to what the patient wants to have done then guide them on the best way to approach their wight. If they want body contouring they need to lose the weight and be stable for a period of time so the skin can tighten before surgery.

Not Advised: Best, for many reasons, to achieve a long-term stable weight prior to undergoing elective surgery. Firstly, safety of the procedure will be increased if you are not overweight at the time. Also, the chances that you will need additional surgery afterwards will be much less if you have achieved a long-term stable weight prior to undergoing surgery. Best wishes.
