Is it possible to get a combination procedure of nose and breast implants?

Thank you for your question. Rhinoplasty and breast reduction/augmentation surgeries are often performed together. This is not an issue at all and is preferred by many patients. Thank you.

Thank you for your question. There is no firm contraindication to combining breast implant surgery and rhinoplasty.

When you have rhinoplasty surgery, even with antibiotic treatment there is an increased amount of bacteria circulating in the bloodstream for a period of time. In principle, they can also aggregate around the breast implant.

Because the risk of capsular contracture and ALCL is associated to some degree also with bacteria on the surface of the implant, there is at least a theoretical risk of increased complications.

It is not a scientifically proven risk but rather a point to discuss with your surgeon. The advantages of combining the procedures are based on recovery time, reduced down time, costs.

Your surgeon may have experience combining these interventions and could be able to provide more inside.

Yes, provided a patient is a candidate. In our Practice we often combine these procedures. It is more convenient to do it at the same time if you can afford it.

Yes, it is a fairly common combination to do a rhinoplasty and breast augmentation together. The pros are that it is one trip to the OR, one time under general anesthesia, and one time recovering from surgery (if you need to take a few days off of work). The cons are that longer time under anesthesia is inherently a little riskier (though still very safe if you are a healthy individual otherwise), and a few other specific or theoretical risks to discuss with your plastic surgeon at your consultation.

Yes, those two procedures are very commonly done together in our practice. However, you have to be sure that surgeon performing these two procedures have significant experience, in particular with rhinoplasty. Good luck.

Can a patient have a Rhinoplasty and breast augmentation at the same time? it is very easy, and very common for a patient to have a rhinoplasty and breast augmentation at the same time. In some cases the same surgeon may do both. In cases where the rhinoplasty surgeon is specialized in Rhinoplasty and does not do breast augmentation he may have a colleague who specializes in breast and they can work together. But either way it is a common combination.

Hello!
Yes, this is absolutely possible. We do combo procedures all the time in our office. The benefits are reduced costs because it often requires less overall OR and anesthesia time as well as a combined recovery so you are not missing two separate periods of time off work.
The biggest concern I would have is whether the Rhinoplasty is going to require the assistance of an ENT. If so that may make scheduling difficult. Recovery may be more painful as you are feeling the effects of longer anesthesia and multiple procedures.
Best of luck!Dr. Tom Korkos

Yes in certain cases. Best to seek virtual consult with.. The risks are slightly high implant infection rates as the only concept you need to fully understand. Fees in the $20,000 ranges btw.
