Is it recommended to have a breast reduction and liposuction of tummy, flanks and back at the same day?
Answer: Risks of multiple procedures This combination can be completed with the knowledge that you may be at increased risk for DVT. Certain prophylactic measures to decrease this risk may be instituted such as Compression Stockings and Pneumatic Compression Devices. Other risks such as hypothermia are possible as well as numerous other less likely adverse events.

Answer: Combined surgeries Absolutely. Combined surges are very common and safe procedures. Some benefits are, reduced overall recovery time, lower total costs, psychological benefits. Make sure to consult with a board-certified experienced plastic surgeon who will assess your overall health and medical history. This will ensure your safety throughout the procedures. Best of luck to you.

Answer: Breast reduction and liposuction, on the same day? If you are in good health, you should be able to have the operations the same day. There are many variables, (how much liposuction, etc;). Best to speak with a board certified plastic surgeon. Together you will review your goals and see what is possible.

Answer: Breast Reduction and Liposuction?
Thank you for the question.
This combination of surgery can be done together assuming you are in good health, that the extent of surgery ( for example blood loss) is reasonable, that you are in the hands of a well experienced board-certified plastic surgeon and anesthesiologist in a fully accredited surgery center facility/hospital.
It would be best to break the procedures into two stages if you have concerns regarding the safety and/or aesthetic results of the procedure.
Best wishes.

Answer: It's safe to have breast reduction and liposuction at the same time.
Depending on the volume of liposuction, it is safe to have the flanks and abdomen suctioned at the time of breast reduction. Clearly, this does not apply to all patients and the surgeon will factor in the magnitude of the problem with any health issues to decide if the combination is safe in a given patient.
