Living with an autoimmune disease presents unique health challenges, and undergoing a surgical procedure like the Himplant® may introduce additional complexities. The medications often prescribed for these conditions, like immunosuppressants, can potentially increase the risk of surgical complications and affect healing and recovery time.
The primary concern lies with the way these medications can compromise the body's ability to heal and fend off potential infections post-surgery. This is particularly crucial for a procedure like the Himplant®, which requires the body's full healing capacity to ensure a successful and seamless recovery.
However, it's important to note that each patient's situation is distinct, and a diagnosis of an autoimmune disease doesn't automatically exclude you from considering the Himplant®. We adhere to a personalized approach for every patient, taking into account their overall health, medical history, and specific circumstances.
If you suffer from an autoimmune disease and are considering the Himplant, we encourage a comprehensive evaluation, which will be performed by our medical team or your Himplant® surgeon. They will assess the potential risks and benefits in your particular case, taking into account the nature and severity of your autoimmune condition, the medication you're taking, and your overall physical health. This in-depth evaluation ensures that you receive the most accurate advice and that any procedure undertaken is done with your safety as the utmost priority.
