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 after breast augmentation and tummy tuck. I like my patients to be in prone position after BBL. You may find it to be very difficult if you had BBL and tummy tuck/Breast augmentation at the same time. How are you going to rest after your surgery without possibly affecting the result? Yes, with a healthy patient and today's technology, you can have all of the above procedures all at once. But why? Especially with higher risks. Best Wishes,
The Mommy Makeover is a combination of procedures to bring a woman’s body back to the way she looked prior to pregnancy. Most commonly some variation of a #TummyTuck and #BreastSurgery are performed. Additional procedures can include liposuction, umbilical hernia repair. The most common #breastprocedures include #mastopexy or #breastlift, #breastaugmentation, or #breastreduction. #MummyTummy is a term given to modified tummy tucks which can use liposuction and skin tightening with radiofrequency such Vanquish, Vela3, thermage, thermiRF and others. The actual fat contouring can be done non-surgically as well with #UltraShape or Cool-Sculpting. In addition to a one-on-one consultations with a board certified Plastic Surgeon, patients always need to be seen by their primary care doctor prior to such procedures. We screen every patient and their medical records for risks of blood clots (DVT) and then take appropriate measures. MWL (massive weight loss patients of 75 lbs or more) tend to have poor skin elasticity and will frequently need additional tightening even afte 6 -12 months regardless of who or how their surgery is performed. This is simply the nature of such body tissues and the ability to heal with the lack or limited elasticity. #Combining these procedures decreases anesthetics, costs, and recovery time. All surgical procedures carry some degree of #risk. Always discuss your issues and concerns with the Plastic Surgeon during and following your consultation. Information that you read online may not apply to your personal situation.It is imperative you select a plastic surgeon who is #board-certified and has a great deal of experience with the procedures included with a Mommy Makeover. . Aside from checking board-certification, it is suggested that you look at before and after photos of the surgeons actual patients, and read patient reviews. Gathering all of this information will help you make a well-informed decision.
It’s definitely possible to perform a Brazilian Butt Lift,abdominoplasty, breast augmentation and breast lift simultaneously.Unfortunately, the recovery following thiscombination can be extremely difficult.For this reason, most plastic surgeons prefer staging theseprocedures.The origin of this problemis simple.Tummy Tuck, breastaugmentation and breast lift patients should lie on their backs followingsurgery while Brazilian Butt Lift patients should lie on their abdomensfollowing surgery.This is obviously adifficult proposition when both procedures are performed together. Whenpatients undergo this surgical combination, safety should be everyone’s firstpriority.For this reason, procedures ofthis magnitude should be performed in accredited surgical centers.The operative times should never exceed the 4to 6 hours.Incontrast, performing these procedures simultaneously offers severaladvantages.These include synergy, lessexpense and one recovery.Forthese reasons, it’s important to consider each case on an individualbasis.No two patients are ever exactlyalike.They have different anatomicfindings, aesthetic goals and social situations.It’s therefore, important to tailor thesurgical approach to the patient’s needs.
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 recommend not having all these surgeries at one time. In my practice, I have done tummy tucks, liposuction, BBLs, and breast lifts with implants on multiple occasions with excellent results. The key is the right surgeon, the right patient, and a healthy environment in which to recover.
In healthy motivated patients, it is common to combine multiple surgeries. In my practice, doing these 3 surgeries at the same time is not uncommon. Consult with a board certified plastic surgeon experienced at these procedures to discuss your specific risks. As long as these can be done in less than 6 hours, your surgical risk should be low.
