Doing tummy tuck with butt lift and breast augmentation/breast lift at the same time

It's possible to have all these procedures done at same time but there are increased risks associated with prolong surgical time and anesthesia duration. There are several considerations for determining whether these combination of procedure should be performed at the same time. One concern regarding tummy tuck, breast augmentation and Brazilian buttock lift is how are you going to position yourself during the recovery period after the surgery. I like my patients to be in supine position... more

Regarding safety of combination plastic surgery procedures including tummy tuck, brazilian butt lift, and breast lift/augment

Thanks for your question! When procedures are combined, the potential for complication increases. This is largely due to the amount of time spent under general anesthesia with the increased risk for developing deep venous thromboses (blood clots) and pulmonary embolism, a potentially fatal problem. The other less threatening problems such as infection, bleeding, hematoma, seroma, and wound healing issues, also generally trend upwards when combination procedures are... more

Breast Aug, Full Breast Lift, and Tummy Tuck at the Same Time

I think that if you are otherwise healthy and if your breasts are not grossly asymmetric, the likelihood is that all can be performed at the same time in a safe manner. The tummy tuck may take 1.5 hrs, the augmentation 15 minutes, and the full breast lift 2 hrs (if you only need a circumareolar or vertical this may only take 45 minutes or an hour). more

Risk of multiple procedures

I think that you have to consider the location of the incisions and whether they will be pulling against each other. Longer operations have a greater risk of complications such as infection or blood clots. I would discuss this carefully with your surgeon.

Is It Safe to Have Tt Bbl and Bl with Ba at the Same Tiime?

My inclination would be to do the TT and breast surgery as a first stage, then proceed later with the liposuction and BBL. Part of this would depend on the nature of the breast lift and how long that would take, and that can vary a lot depending on what is needed. I prefer to keep outpatient OR times to 4 hours, many others will go to 6. Many operative risks increase with longer OR times. The usual standard is that for surgery longer than 6 hours, patients should be observed (admitted)... more

Mommy makeover with Brazilian Butt Lift, Abdominoplasty, and Breast Augmentation

My guess is that you are pushing the envelope for the number of procedures that can be safely accomplished in one setting. The downside of combining brazilian butt lift with any procedure is the positioning. The factors to consider are 1. what are the donor sites for the fat going to be 2. how long does your surgeon take to perform the procedures and 3. are you going to be spending the night in the hospital to recover. I personally do not like to... more

This sounds like a lot of surgery to be having at the same time. I think it is insane and to do all of these at once

Is It Safe To Have BL with BI, TT, and BBL All At One Time?

The answer to your question is probably yes, but also possibly no. If you are both physically and emotionally healthy, you have recovery time and a good home support system, and if your plastic surgeon is Board Certified and he or she is very experienced in the multiple surgeries of a Mommy Makeover, and if your plastic surgeon has an overnight facility available, then my answer would be yes. On the other hand, if any of the elements listed above are missing, then I would... more

Its starting to be a little too much

Hello, Thank you for the question. A tummy tuck, breast lift, and breast augmentation performed at the same time is safe. It takes me about 5-6 hours to perform these three procedures. A brazilian buttock lift (BBL) will be another 2 hours and for me that would result in a 7-8 hour case. In the right hands these four procedures can be performed at the same time safely but the combination of procedures can easily go into the 10+ hour time frame if the surgeon is... more
