I would like to have a tummy tuck and breast lift with implants. I've been told the surgery combined will take at least 12 hours, which is terrifying. Am I better off splitting the two procedures?

Answer: Mommy Makeover Hello, Thank you for sharing your question. I do a breast lift with implants in 3 hours and a tummy tuck in 3-4 hours. Yes, 12 hours is too long. If your surgeon told you he will do it in 12 hours, I'd recommend you to choose a better surgeon. Please feel free to contact me for an online consultation. instagram.com/drcempa Best regards, DR.

Answer: Mommy Makeover Yes. This is a very speculative question but the literature suggest that surgeries over 6 hours demonstrate significantly higher risks of complications. At our surgery center we limit surgical time to 6 hours for body contouring cases like a mommy makeover. Additionally, a tummy tuck with breast augmentation/mastopexy should take less than 6 hours.
