Is it possible to have a BBL, BA, and TT at the same time? If so, what would the recovery look like since you can't be on your back with the BBL yet shouldn't lay on your stomach for the TT or BA. I would rather not have the TT but feel like I will likely need it as I have had 2 children and some stretch marks. Is there anything I can do (perhaps take vitamins or apply bio oil or something to my tummy area) which may help improve the elasticity of my skin to reduce the chances of needing a TT?
Answer: Including a Brazilian Butt Lift with a Mommy Makeover #Combined operations are often performed with our #Gynecology colleagues. Tubal ligation is a common post pregnancy procedure which is done at the time of many of the surgeries included with a #MommyMakeover. If you require a gynecologic operation or study (laparoscopy) and are considering a plastic surgery procedure, discuss these issues with your physician and board-certified plastic surgeon. Also, combining these #procedures may decrease anesthetics, costs, and recovery time. Many procedures can be combined. Cosmetic procedures such as Brazilian Butt Lift (#BBL), Thigh Lift (#TL) and Mommy Makeover (#MMO), which usually concentrates on the breast and abdomen areas, may be combined together. However, I look at the risk factors such as surgery time greater than 6 hours, or #anesthesia time, increased risks of DVT, prolonged #healing, #positioning after surgery to name a few, which are a lot to consider. These factors are relative to performing any variety of combinations. Your procedures should be performed by a #PlasticSurgeon who is board-certified and has a great deal of experience specializing in cosmetic #surgery. You will then greatly improve your chances of getting the result you desire, and, without the need for a revision surgery. It is suggested that you look at before and after photos of the surgeons actual patients, and read patient reviews. Gathering all of this information will help you make a well-informed decision.

Answer: Mommy Makeover & BBL Yes, it is possible to have them all done at once. However, whether or not it is safe for you to do so can only be determined with an in person assessment. So, my best advice would be for you to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon in your area to discuss your options.

Answer: TT, BA, BBL Hello, this is a lot of surgery to have at one time, but if you are interested in learning if it is feasible I would suggest having several consultations with plastic surgeons who are experienced in doing extensive combined body contouring operations. They would need to take into consideration your unique anatomy and overall health when advising if this would be appropriate.

Answer: Combined procedures There are a few issues to consider when combining multiple procedures. The first is safety. A breast augmentation, tummy tuck and Brazilian buttock lift may be too long of a surgery, depending on your health and the time it takes for your surgeon to complete all three procedures. Also the position you will be limited to will be on your sides only. It may be more reasonable for you to have two separate surgeries. For example combine the tummy tuck and breast augmentation, then several months later, do the BBL. Consult with a few surgeons to see if your abdominal skin is loose enough to warrant a tummy tuck in the first place.Best wishes,Dr.Bruno

Answer: Positioning after Mommy Makeover It is true that you will not be able to lay on your stomach after implants or a tummy tuck. It would be difficult to lay flat on your stomach due to the stretch of the abdominal skin with a tummy tuck. Having a Brazilian Butt Lift at the same time is frustrating due to the post op positioning. I would recommend doing the BBL at a separate time. If you must have it at the same time, just know that the fat grafting to the buttocks may be compromised due to pressure on the fat.As for positioning, you could definitely lay on your side to protect both the front and the back surgical sites. But if you find you absolutely have to lay on your backside after the Brazilian Butt Lift, I would recommend using a soft round pillow like a Boppy Pillow used with breast feeding. Place this soft pillow underneath you to relieve the pressure from the buttocks. Then place a few pillows behind the back and under the knees to relieve tension on the abdomen from the tummy tuck. Hope this helps!
