How Long After Liposculpture Can You Get Breast Augmentation?

If I get liposculpture now how long would I have to wait to get breast Implants?

A: simultaneous is possible

You can get both surgeries performed at the same time.  I often perform multiple cosmetic surgeries on the same patient.  Your surgeon can best determine on wether to stage the procedures versus performing them the same day.  In general, I like to wait at least 2 weeks if a staged procedure is required.

Possible Short-term and Long-term Side Effects of Facial Liposculpture

I am interested in facial liposuction to sculpt my lower cheeks. There is very little information available on this procedure, but I understand that in the shorter term, it may actually tighten the skin as the scar tissue contracts during the healing process. I am wondering what the long-term side effects are on skin laxity or the possible ramifications on aging facial tissue. I am 32, Asian/Irish, with pale and delicate skin that is prone to broken /dilated capillaries. Is this procedure generally recommended for someone with thin, delicate skin? What are the possible short-term and long-term side effects of this procedure?

A: Facial liposuction not as safe or effective as mini facelift

Facial cheek liposuction not as safe or effective as mini facelift. keep lipo to chin and neck line. i found the answers posted by fellow experts to be interesting...for the most part, those of us that perform both liposuction and facelifts tend to favor facelift....this is because we get superior results with facelift with less chance of disfigurement,which can be permanent. to me, as a sugeon who performs many laser liposuction cases each week, I stay away from the cheek. I will laser the chin and lower jaw line, if the skin tone is good.
