MMO w/breast aug or separate surgery for augmentation?

Dear Witty777138,

I understand your concern. It is best however that you consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to determine whether you can have several aesthetic surgeries in one session, as this would depend on various factors including but not limited to your general health condition, the type of anesthesia that will be used, and the type of surgeries that will be performed among others.

Hello and thank you for your question! Yes, it is very common and safe to combine those procedures together. The term "mommy makeover" usually implies a surgery on the abdomen and one on the breasts. There can be other areas/procedures combined dependent on patients' needs and priorities. Most people combine procedures to have one downtime rather than two, as well as bundle some cost savings on facility/anesthesia fees. However, it is perfectly acceptable and safe to do surgery in multiple stages/separate times.

Thanks so much for your inquire,

Combining both procedures into a single surgery can be an effective approach for patients who want to achieve comprehensive results quickly and are in good health. However, it requires careful planning and a clear understanding of the risks, especially in terms of longer anesthesia times and a potentially more difficult recovery. The decision should be based on the patient's health, recovery capacity, and goals.

Sincerely,
Dr. Emmanuel Mallol
