Most people assume that if you’ve ever had a blood clot, plastic surgery is off the table forever.
But is that actually true?
In this powerful episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, Dr. Rady Rahban sits down with Lori — a 60-year-old woman who survived multiple blood clots, including two pulmonary embolisms, and still safely underwent a tummy tuck.
This conversation dives into:
- The real risks of surgery after DVT or PE
- Why most doctors automatically say no — and why sometimes, that’s not the whole story
- How a true team approach between surgeon + hematologist can make previously “impossible” cases possible
- The emotional journey of choosing your own quality of life — even when others try to talk you out of it
This is not a story about vanity. It’s a story about courage, medical nuance, and reclaiming your confidence at any age. If you’ve ever wondered, “Can I have plastic surgery if I’ve had a blood clot?” — this episode is your answer.
