There no local surgeons who perform Brazilian butt lift and Tummy Tuck altogether in my area. If I travel, how long will I need to stay in the area where the surgery will be performed? How does someone travel after this procedure to post-op caring or back home? Are there medical rate hotels or someone who could help arrange all of this?

May want to stage tummy tuck and butt lift unless you are sure you have enough fat

Hi Livylive, I believe I answered another question where you provided a picture and asked whether you should have these procedures together.

Travel arrangements for Brazilian Butt Lift

Hi there- I have many patients who travel to me for this procedure, and many other plastic surgeons (especially in destination cities) are able to assist with travel arrangements.

Travel after surgery.

Hi! You can travel by car in two weeks and fly in three weeks. We see a lot of out of town patients (see web site), and we routinely arrange for hotels and nursing care. But of course, it gets expensive.
