I want a mommy makeover asap. Also I want to have each procedure done by the best in each field rather than convenience. So how long do I have to wait between each one? I want to have dental makeover( 4 wisdom teeth extractions,1 canine tooth extractions and veneers), Labiaplasty, Brazilian butt lift, and last I will have a Breast augmentation and tummy tuck (at the same time). I am 23 years old, in great health, and mother of two. . Thank you for your time and help! Have a great day!
Answer: Time interval between procedures Hi, there! Thank you for your question. I typically wait approximately 3-months between procedures to allow for optimal healing. Many of the procedures you are seeking to have done can certainly be combined. It is often an excellent idea to stage a tummy tuck, with liposuction being performed at the first-stage (as part of the Brazilian Butt Lift) to deflate your abdomen and allow for maximum excision of skin at the second-stage. The breast augmentation and labiaplasty could also be performed during the second-stage. Staging your procedures in this fashion will offer the best results.The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast and body surgery.Best of luck!Dr. Schwartz

Answer: Time interval between two mommy makeover sessions. There's no particular standard. Most surgeons would wait about six weeks as a matter of custom. This of course would depend upon convalescence from the first set of operations.

Answer: How long do I have to wait in between procedures? Thank you for the question. Generally speaking, these types of combination surgical procedures are done routinely. However, you are wise in being concerned about the safety of combination surgery; risks/possible complications do increase with increased length of surgery… It is best to evaluate each patient's suitability for combination surgery on an individualized basis. During this consultation process, after a complete history and physical, the SAFETY of combining these surgical procedures becomes of paramount importance. Plastic surgeon, anesthesia provider, duration of surgery, surgery facility all important considerations. Your best bet: choose your plastic surgeon very carefully; everything else including good judgment/advice/planning, anesthesia provider and safe surgery facility will follow. Your chosen plastic surgeons, knowing you (and how you do with the surgical procedures) will be your best guide when it comes to recommendations regarding time between surgical procedures. Best wishes.

Answer: Mommy make over Dear Vivababe, Safety should be your main consideration and than, obviously good results. 1. Labioplasty, the best plastic surgeon is in your neck of the woods - Dr Gary Alter. 2. BBL is a waste of time and money because the fat disappears after 6 - 12 month or even faster as I have seen on many patients who came to my surgery center for butt implants surgery after their big disappointment from the fat injection that was done by other surgeons. Your best option is butt implants. When done correctly, they look natural and are very attractive. Not all results are the same, because there are different techniques, different implants and different skills. so do your due diligence. Consult only with board certified plastic surgeons who do lots of butt implants surgery in accredited surgery center for your safety. Check the before and after pictures in the photo gallery, to make sure that they are numerous, consistent and attractive. 3. Tummy tuck and breasts augmentation. I have been doing plastic surgery for 28 years. Based on that experience I would strongly recommend to split the tummy tuck and the breasts augmentation into two separate procedures. Patients over estimate the ability to handle 2 painful operation and as a result they can have severe complications like blood clots, pneumonia etc because they stay in bed without ambulation or drinking enough fluids. Tummy tuck should be your first procedure, because your body will change dramatically after surgery - your posture will improve and most likely you will lose significant amount of weight due to the muscles tightening that will reduce your ability to eat food as before and the sense of hunger. Again experience and skills are paramount and the photo gallery will help you in your selection of the better surgeon. 4. Dental. Do it last. Best of luck, Dr Widder

Answer: When to do surgeries Make sure to ask your dentist if being intubated will put your veneers at risk in any way. If so, do your surgeries first. The labiaplasty can be done under local anesthesia. The Brazilian butt lift and breast aug/tummy tuck, will be done under general anesthesia. I would wait at least 3 months in between the surgeries that you need to be under general for. And make sure you have lots of help for the first week or two. Best of luck!Sheila NazarianBeverly Hills
