Can a butt lift be done at the same time as a breast reduction?

Combined butt lift and breast reducion?
In my opinion, these are not two surgeries that you can safely combine in one setting. The length, complexity of position changes, risks of blood clots are among a few of my reasons. I'd actually look skeptically at someone who would offer this combo for "your convenience."

Be careful.....
Hello,
I usually recommend people to be wary about combining two larger scale operations in one sitting as expedience might short change you on each. Surgeons who book too much tend to do less surgery in order to get done. If you don't need full version of larger operations it can be possible without such a short changing. Just be careful and express with your surgeon what you want done. Surgery is not like buying a car off a lot with many of the exact same model available...

Butt Lift and Breast Reduction on the same day
Assuming you are in good health, a breast reduction and a butt lift can safely be done on the same day. In my own practice, a breast reduction takes less than two hours, a butt lift (brazilian or regular) likewise takes less than two hours. Neither procedure is associated with significant blood loss. That being said, you should take the recovery into account. You will be sore on top and the bottom, and finding a comfortable position in which to rest will be a challenge.

Butt lift and simultaneous breast reduction
A butt lift is an effective way to change the position and contour of your butt. This can be done at the same time as other procedures including a breast reduction. If receiving this combination, be sure that you discuss the recovery process at length with your plastic surgeon. They may recommend certain positions that you should avoid to prevent placing too much tension onto the incisions. Think carefully about recovery process and if it seems too difficult or inconvenient, consider...

Brazilian Butt Lift and Breast Reduction
Despite many of my colleague's remakrs, I think that these procedures can be performed safely together within 5 hours. Many body lift procedures also involve working on the back and front of a patient and can take 6 hours or more. The predetermining factor needs to be your current and past medical health and your risk factors for clot formation.

Separate operations recommended for Butt Lift and Breast Reduction
It could be done but WHY? These are 2 intense operations on opposite sides of the body. I would separate them by a few months in order to attain that 'great' result. Regards.

Butt lift and Breast Reduction Combined
I would say NO. Both these surgeries are complex surgeries and take a long time to complete. You would be better off to separate these two procedures.
Good luck.

Brazilian Butt Lift
Breast reduction can take 21/2 to 31/2 hrs, to achieve a good cosmetic result.
Brazilian Butt Lift involves harvesting the fat from any place there is excess.when you harvest the fat it also needs time to remove the fat as if you are doind a cosmetic liposuction procedre and not only take fat and leave the area with suboptimal result. These areas can be all over. For the butt enhancement, you need to be placed on your stomach, WHICH WILL PUT SOME PRESSURE ON THE BREAST. You cannot...

Breast reduction and a butt lift
A breast reduction and a butt lift can definitely be performed at the same time. The overall operative time should be within safe limits for the two to be accomplished successfully.

Breast Reduction and Butt lift: techniques determine positioning.
I think this depends on the technique done for breast reduction. For example, many Brazilian Butt lifts are performed with a patient in the supine postiion to obtain fat first. If your breast reduction is being accomplished with liposuction, although this is not typically the case, I see no problem with doing the breast reduction liposuction first and then doing the buttock Injections. If the breast reduction is performed using conventional incisions than I would be very cautious about...

I would not recommend combining a Butt Lift and Breast Procedure
Hi there-
This is not a combination I would recommend.
Even if you could have the procedures completed in a reasonable period of time and without undue risk to your health, proper recovery from a breast procedure will require you to lie on your back, while proper recovery from a buttock procedure will require a limit to how much time you spend in this position.
Remember that the reason you are pursuing these procedures in the first place is because you want to look your best, right?

Butt lift WITH breast Reduction
I agree with Dr. Rand. he procedures are done of opposite sides of the body which means that not only does one operation need to be completed before the other begins BUT the other operation requires turning the patient onto the just operated side risking opening the wound. To say nothing of being sore on both sides of the body making recovery harder.
