I recently consulted with a plastic surgeon for breast augmentation. He recommended also doing a breast lift, but said they need to be separate surgeries because the complications are significantly higher when they are done together. Is this true or is he trying to get me to do two sugergies? What does the cdata suggest? I am a healthy, athletic non smoker in my 30s, no pregnancies or prior surgeries.

Answer: Splitting surgery I always do my breast lift with implants in one procedure. I always recommend my patients to avoid large implants. Large implants increase the risk of complications, especially with wound healing. This is not medical advice. Because making an individual recommendation without consultation is unethical. I recommend getting a second opinion from another board-certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: Hello I do at least 2 breast lift with implants a week, it has risk, but it’s the same risk that the breast lift has always, some doctors prefer doing separate because they learn to do it in this way, in my case, I prefer always do it together, for me it’s simply and less time of surgery
