Hi there-

As long as you are under the care of a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, and a good anesthesia provider, the combination procedure you describe should be safe within limits familiar to your surgeon...

I think as long as the surgery is not too long (5-7 hours) and you are healthy, the advantages outweigh the risks.
