I want to have a rhinoplasty and breast augmentation performed But I don't want to do rhino and have to wait long to do the BA. For how long one's body is supposed to rest between cosmetic surgeries? I'd like to find 2 surgeons that could operate on me either simultaneously or one immediately after the other. Is that possible?
Answer: Waiting Period Both procedures can be done at the same time. You can also choose to do them at separate times. If you choose to do them separately, I recommend doing the second one once you have finished the healing process for the first one. Hope this helps. Raja Mohan MD

Answer: Two surgeons, one anesthetic My practice is comprised of a full body plastic surgeon and a facial plastic surgeon (me). We both focus our skills on different areas of the body. As such, we can operate on patients at the same time. This is a tremendous advantage to patients -- one anesthetic (safer), one OR and anesthesia fee (saves money), one recovery period (saves time away from work), and two surgeons (less risk of surgeon fatigue and more specialized care). You should also feel comfortable with both surgeons -- this is often determined by your first meeting in person. I wish you well!Parker A. Velargo, MD
