How Long After a Breast Lift/implants Should I Wait to Get a Lower Body Lift? I have enough money to get a breast lift and implants, but not enough yet for a lower body lift. I lost over 80 pounds and would still like to lose some more weight before the LBL, but with money left in the reimbursement plan I'm hoping to get the lift and implants now. How long would I have to wait after this procedure to get a lower body lift? I'm hoping to get a periaerolar lift with silicone gel implants under the muscle, if that makes a difference...

A: Cosmetic surgery after weight loss

Hi,

I highly recommend that patients wait 4 weeks before scheduling another procedure. It also depends on how you lost the weight. If it was done on your own (diet and exercise) or by gastric bypass surgery. As you know, that with the latter a lot of important nutrients can no longer be absorbed. This renders the patient unable to heal properly. If this is the case, then it is best to wait a few weeks longer. I'm also concerned about your plan to undergo a periareolar lift with implants. This technique may not give you the result you are looking for. Let me suggest another option. The Ultimate Breast Lift is one that does not require an implant to give you firm and perky breasts. It also has NO VERTICAL SCAR. I hope this helps. Dr H
