Can you die from a Tummy Tuck and Breast Lift?

arizonasky
I am wondering what the chances are of dieing from getting a breast lift with a tummy tuck. Would it be better/safer to get them done in two separate appointments? Are blood/fat clots something that happens often. If someone has had a previous surgery with no complications, is it safe to say that there won't be complications with this type of surgery?
