I was wondering if all three procedures can be done at the same time and how long on average the recovery is. I have a 1 year old and my husband is able to take around 10 days off work, would that be enough or should we go plan for more?
Answer: Tummy tuck and BBL and breast lift at the same time I would not do all three on the same day. I believe it is safe to do 2 on the same day but not all three. The recovery from the tummy tuck will be the longest. I think 10 days will be enough time off work, but you will still be sore at that point, but you could do it if that is the only option. In general I would suggest the BBL first and once recovered from this then do the tummy tuck and breast lift. Of course you could do the breast lift and the BBL at the same too but I like patients to stay off of the buttocks after the fat transfer for 3 weeks and that would be hard to do if your tummy and breasts are sore from the surgery.

Answer: Tummy Tuck - BBL At Same Time? Thank you for your question. I do not think it is a good idea to have a tummy tuck and BBL at the same time. I believe you will have better results if you stage the procedures. First, do liposuction to harvest fat from the hips, flanks, thighs, and abdomen. This fat can be used for the BBL. Once you have recovered from Stage 1, a tummy tuck can be performed. Please see a board certified plastic surgeon who commonly performs these procedures. Ask to see a lot of before and after pictures of their work. Hope this helps and good luck.

Answer: Tummy tuck, BBL and. Ready lift thank you for your question. It's difficult to answer that question without photos or examining you as it really depends on extent of work required. I routinely performed tummy tuck and BBL together in my practice. If you are a petite body frame and if you require a straightforward breast lift only then that can be done at the same time as well. However if you need more extensive work for your tummy tuck and/or Liposculpting of torso for BBL along with large breast lift then it's best to break it up.It's best to have a thorough in person consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area to discuss all of your treatment options. Best of luck! Dr. Dhaval M.Patel Double Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Chicago-Water Tower Place, Oakbrook, Hoffman Estates, Orland Park

Answer: Tummy tuck, BBL & breast lift at the same time? Hello dear!Thanks for your post and provided information as well. Having a mommy makeover is normal and safe if you are in good health and if you hemoglobin levels are high enough to have all this done at once. But you'll need help with your child beyond 10 days. I recommend you to make an evaluation with a board certified plastic surgeon to talk about your concerns and goals. Good luck

Answer: Combo procedures It is possible to perform all these procedures simultaneously, but you need a thorough work up by a board-certified plastic surgeon to determine if this is the right choice. You'll have several weeks down time and activity restrictions as a result as well.
