Tubal ligation and Mommy Makeover

This combination of surgery may be very possible. I have performed a tummy tuck combined with a hysterectomy as performed by an OBGYN specialist, but in that case the patient was admitted to a hospital for a day or two. A tubal ligation as well as the mommy makeover are both outpatient procedures, but as always I would confer with your doctors to be sure they feel comfortable with this combination of procedures. Good luck to you. Frank Rieger M... more

Mommy Makeover and Tubal Ligation at same time

Thank you for your question. Congratulations on your weight loss. Yes, these procedures can be combined assuming smooth / efficient cooperation between OBGYN and Plastic Surgeon. Make sure both physicians you are working with are board certified and experienced in their fields. Best Wishes!

Tubal Ligation and Mommy Makeover ?

I would agree with the other plastic surgeons in that a coordination of efforts with your GYN surgeon is all that is required, I have one other suggestion because I got burned on this once. Be sure to have your plastic surgeon place the incision mark on your belly button first and make the gyn doctor stick to that mark. If they put the punture hole for the tubal to deep in the belly button it will make the belly button have excessive scarring. Good Luck

Tubal ligation and mommy makeover yes!

It is certainly possible to perform tummy tuck surgery, breast implants and have a tubal ligation performed at the same time. Assuming your health is good, your surgeon can coordinate with your gyn surgeon to work together. Your height and weight are good and I wish you good luck.

Combination procedures

It is certainly possible to combine some procedures together, it depends upon the health of the patient and the length of time the surgery will take to name a few.

Mommy Makeover and Tubal Ligation.

The answer to your question is yes you can have a tubal ligation and a mommy makeover done at the same surgical setting without problems. Combination procedures involving abdominoplasty, body lift, breast surgery, and many other procedures are frequently performed in conjunction with gynecological procedures.

Mommy Makeover and Tubal ligation

Tummy tuck, tubal ligation, and breast implants could easily be performed at the same time. However, some surgeons are concerned about the increased risk of clotting. Some measures such as cimpression stockings are used to diminish this risk but blood thinners are not commuonly utlilized due to the risk of bleeding.  see video

Combined procedures

This is a good question.  The "mommy makeover" is a commonly performed procedure in plastic surgery.  Given your young age, you would likely tolerate this procedure quite well.  While you could have a tubal ligation along with a tummy tuck and breast augmentation, some studies have demonstrated a slightly increased risk of infection when gynecologic procedures are combined with plastic surgical procedures.  Increased complications are associated with... more
