Can a brachioplasty, breast lift w/augmentation, and lipo of the back be performed in one surgery?

Thank you for your question. Yes, all three of these procedures can safely be done in one session. You should schedule an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon who has experience with all three of these procedures to discuss your goals and concerns. The surgeon should assess your overall health and determine if you are a good candidate for combining the three procedures. Hope this helps.

I would need to examine you to make a determination of your candidacy for these procedures; if you are healthy, all three procedures can be combined and performed at the same time.  Select a plastic surgeon who performs hundreds of body contouring each year, has great reviews, and has great before and after pictures.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Hi Lalabates, Thank you for your question regarding whether an arm lift or brachioplasty, a breast lift with augmentation, and liposuction of the back can be performed in one surgery. Yes, I believe all these procedures can be safely combined at one time. I often combine the arm lift and the breast lift with augmentation at the same time.  It would not take too much longer to perform back liposuction. Logistically, first, I would perform your back liposuction.  Second, I would perform your arm lift or brachioplasty.  Third, I would perform your breast augmentation with breast lift. Before any plastic surgery is contemplated, I would suggest you undergo routine blood tests, EKG, and chest x-ray.  Please seek a qualified plastic surgeon with significant experience in these procedures. If you have any further questions regarding an arm lift, arm reduction, brachioplasty, breast augmentation, breast lift, mastopexy, and back liposuction, please contact my office. Good luck! Sincerely, Dr. Katzen.

thank you for your question.  If you are healthy and do not have any medical problems, there is no reason why you cannot proceed with all the procedures. When doing combination procedures you are under anesthesia for a longer period and with certain medical problems that can make you high-risk. I would discuss this with your doctor had of time.

Important question.  As long as you are in good physical health this should be able to be performed at he same time.  Increasing age, medical issues, obesity, smoking are some of the risk factors that could affect your safety and outcome.  Consult with your doctor regarding your individual risks.
