Multiple Procedures for a Healthy 25-year-old?

Hello, I am 25 years old, 5'2'' tall and I weigh 135 lbs. I have not had a baby yet but I want to have a small tummy tuck and liposuction done all over my abdomen, back, love handles, inner thighs, under my chin, and take the good fat and do a Brazilian butt lift. Can I have that all done at the same time? I am also in very good health. I would be thankful if you reply. Thank You!

Multiple procedures

Based on your height and weight, you may be a candidate for liposuction and a fat transfer to your buttock, depending on the quality of your skin. If you are planning to have children in the future, you may want to consider delaying your tummy tuck until you have completed having children. If your lower abdominal area is free of stretch marks and loose skin, then perhaps liposuction alone is the answer. Again, you would need to be examined by a board certified plastic surgeon prior to any... more

Multiple Procedures can be OK at the same time

First, you must determine with your surgeon what procedures are best to achieve your goals. You must determine if your goals are realistic. Tummy tuck is often combined with liposuction. I wouldn't do tummy tuck and lipoinjection to the buttocks at the same time as your recovery will be compromised. Having multiple procedures can be safe in the right situation and in the right patient. You should see a board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate the areas you want to address and... more

Multiple Procedure

Yes, it is possible and safe to do multiple procedures in a young and healthy patient as long as you are having your surgery in an accredited facility by competent surgeons. If you are planning on having babies in the next few years, you should hold off on the tummy tuck. Liposuction and butt lift, however, would be a good choice and would not be affected by pregnancy. Of course, we could give you more specific advice if you post pictures. Good luck with your procedure....

Multiple procedures for a 25-year-old

The main danger in a healthy patient is length of general anesthesia. Risks start to increase after 4 hours of surgery. These risks can be avoided with the use of deep IV sedation anesthesia. A small caveat in your particular case is that if you have not had a baby yet I would hold off on the Tummytuck until after you have had the baby, as the tummytuck will stretch out all your repair work. see video

Multiple procedures.

Hi! 1) Don't have any kind of tummy tuck until you are finished having babies. 2) Liposuction of the areas you list and fat injections into your butocks (Brasilian butt lift) are fine to do all together in someone like you. 3) You don't want too long anesthesia time or too much blood loss, and I don't think either would be a problem.

Multiple procedures in a healthy patient

It may be possible and safe to do the procedures you describe, in a select group of patients for the right reasons. If you have not yet had a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon, a member of the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery(ASAPS) or the American Society of Plastic Surgery(ASPS)--that is the first place to start the decision making process. You mention "small tummy tuck" and that you may have a baby in the future. In general i would recommend... more

Multiple procedures

Hacving multiple procedures within reason is certainly okay in a young healthy individual. If you are planning to have children, I would wait to get a tummy tuck.

Wait for the tummy tuck

Get evaluated by a board certified plastic surgeon -- let them tell you what is appropriate for you . .Just because you want a tummy tuck doesnt mean it is the proper treatment. Otherwise, what you want done should be appropriate for one surgery.

Your choice of multiple procedures seem reasonable but why a tummy tuck?

This sounds like a reasonable combination because a Brazillian Butt Liff often requires harvesting from multiple donor sites to obtain sufficient fat. I am confused about your request for a tummy tuck. This is extremely unusual in a normal healthy nulliparous 25 year old. Unless you have gained/lost alot of weight or have excessive skin laxity, I would seek the advice of a plastic surgeon regarding the wisdom of proceeding with a tummy tuck

Multiple cosmetic procedures at the same time are reasonable within reason

It sounds like the amount of liposuction you are considering together with a Brazilian Butt Lift is reasonable. If it is anticipated that there will be over 5000 cc of suction than it should be done in the hospital. The surgery should also be completed in less then 5-6 hours. You should also wait to have a tummy tuck until you have had your children or are sure you will not be having any. At 25 it is hard to make such a judgement.
