When you think about cirugía plástica, it’s normal to have many questions and desires. At My Cosmetic Surgery, we understand that the path to your transformation begins with proper preparation. To safely turn those dreams into reality, it is essential to be well-informed about weight requirements and health.
The Key Requirement: The Body Mass Index (BMI)
Uno de los aspectos más importantes que los pacientes deben considerar antes de someterse a un procedimiento es el índice de masa corporal (IMC). This indicator is fundamental for assessing body fat levels and determining if your weight is within a healthy range for surgery.
Through a simple relationship between your height and weight, you can find out if you meet the ideal BMI for plastic surgery and the necessary requirements to guarantee your safety.
The BMI Limit at My Cosmetic Surgery
En My Cosmetic Surgery, we establish a maximum BMI limit of 35 for popular and combination procedures such as the “mommy makeover“, abdominoplastia (tummy tuck), lipoescultura, mammoplastyo liposucción.
It is crucial that every patient meets this criterion, as an elevated BMI can:
- Significantly increase the risk of complications during surgery.
- Prolong the post-operative recovery time.
- Compromise the final aesthetic result.
During your first consultation, our certified specialists will guide you and explain in detail why safety is linked to your pre-operative BMI.
