Difficult to find a comfortable position after tummy tuck and brazilian butt lift

Otto Joseph Placik, MD answers: Liposuction, Brazilian Butt Lift, and Tummy Tuck in one session?

I want to have Liposuction on my back and flanks, Brazilian Butt Lift, and a Tummy Tuck. Would it be safe to have all these done at the same time?

Where do you want to recover?

  1. On your back: not good for brazillian buttock lift
  2. On your stomach: not good for tummy tuck
  3. On your feet: not practical

Some individuals prefer to stage these procedures performing either the front or back in one session. Others are more willing to perform both at the same time and realistically, you will recover on your back which may coompromise the results of the buttock lift.

Discuss this with your surgeon and ask their opinion

A: ...these three procedures can be safely done at once

Ricardo Izquierdo, MD

 Depending on your general state of health, these three procedures can be safely done at once.  Usually, this type of combination takes 4-6 hours.  Your surgeon should have the appropriate experience in these cases and have them performed in an accredited outpatient or hospital facility.
