Yes it is ok to do at the same time. Just make sure to use to an American board of plastic surgery certified surgeon who has experience with these procedures.Good luck!

Patients frequently combine procedures This is advantageous in that you have one recovery- not two and often there is a cost savings. Tummy tuck and vaginal rejuvenation should be able to be combined.

Hi and thank you for your question.  Yes, if you otherwise in good health, it is perfectly safe to perform this combination of procedures.  Best you meet with a board certified plastic surgeon in person to discuss further details.  Good luck!

Christopher V. Pelletiere, MD · Answer

It should be totally safe to undergo these procedures together as long as you are healthy and your board certified plastic surgeon feels it is appropriate.  Those surgeries generally go well together.  I hope this helps.

Hello and thank you for your question. I frequently perform these two surgeries together at the same time. 
Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of
real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate
their results.  The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are
comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified
board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.

Absolutely those procedures can be done at that same time. You'll just want to wear a post-op compression garment that goes around your waist only, rather than one you put on like pants/shorts. Most of these have a hole in them in the crotch for going to the bathroom without taking the garment off. These edges where the hole is can be very irritating because of the vaginoplasty. You'll just want a garment that straps around the waist/tummy area. Hope this helps.
