Los Angeles Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Paul Nassif, Comments on the News about Anti-Depressants before Plastic Surgery

Dr. Paul Nassif is sharing his opinion about the effects of anti-depressants before plastic surgery and recent news about it.



    LOS ANGELES, CA, November 17, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Famed Los Angeles facial plastic surgery expert, Dr. Paul Nassif, is confident that the evidence proving anti-depressants safe prior to plastic surgery will improve the patient experience. According to the report published by Wolters Kluwer Health, there is no reason to stop taking prescribed anti-depressants to avoid potential complications during surgery. Not only does stopping anti-depressants provide no benefit, it could cause more problems by leaving underlying depression untreated.

"It is not unusual for a patient requesting plastic surgery to have certain medications that they take regularly," Dr. Nassif, Los Angeles nose job surgeon, explained. "Now that we know there is no risk involved with taking anti-depressants, our patients are less likely to experience psychological vulnerability."

Some of the surgically invasive treatments offered by Dr. Nassif include:

- Facelift surgery
- Rhinoplasty
- Eyelid surgery
- Otoplasty
- Cheek lift surgery
- Brow lift surgery
- Neck lift surgery

The consultation for any surgery is going to begin with an evaluation of the full medical history, including a list of all current prescriptions. A patient that is regularly taking blood thinners or other medications that could increase the likelihood of complications will be asked to discontinue use before any invasive treatment. Although there are some risks involved when taking anti-depressants regularly, Dr. Nassif, Los Angeles Asian eyelid surgery expert, and many other doctors feel that it is insignificant when compared to the risks of suddenly discontinuing use.

"As a doctor, I take my responsibility to ensure safety very seriously every step of the way," the Los Angeles facial plastic surgeon said. "I look forward to providing great results without any physical or psychological complications."
