Welcome to the Tannan Plastic Surgery BMI Calculator! We created this resource as a tool to measure your Body Mass Index, or BMI. According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, your BMI is a measure of body fat based on height and weight that applies to adult men and women. The BMI calculation plays a critical role in determining whether patients are good candidates for plastic surgery.
For the best results from a cosmetic procedure, including Tummy Tuck, Breast Augmentation and Breast Reduction, you should be as close as possible to be at your ideal weight. Additionally, being at a safer BMI means there is less risk to your health during your cosmetic procedure. At Tannan Plastic Surgery, your safety is our top priority. That is why we built this BMI calculator. To help you understand your BMI level and what it means for plastic surgery procedures.
1. Select your weight:
{{ weight }}lbs
2. Select your height:
{{ `${Math.floor(inches / 12)}ft ` + `${((inches / 12) - Math.floor(inches / 12)) * 12 === 0 ? '' : Math.round(((inches / 12) - Math.floor(inches / 12)) * 12) + 'in'}` }}
I Have My Plastic Surgery BMI Calculator Results. Now What?
The good news is that your BMI is not permanent. It can change with incorporating some changes in your lifestyle like your diet and exercise. We encourage our patients to continue their weight loss journey if they are not yet at their peak fitness or if their BMI is in a category less ideal for plastic surgery.
If you have any questions about the best time to have plastic surgery, schedule a consultation with board certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Tannan, for a one-on-one discussion. During your visit, you will also get to meet our all-female team and see our on-site surgical suite in Brier Creek of Raleigh, NC.
