I took 600mg of ibuprofen on sunday morning. i am scheduled for a water liposuction procedure on my tummy tomorrow. will it cause any problems?

NSAIDs: Ibuprofen is a NSAID (non steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) and can cause bleeding problems with procedures. Most surgeons will request stopping these medications 7-10 days prior to the procedure. It is unclear what the impact of one dose will have. You should contact your surgeon and discuss.
