Facelift and Breast Lift in One Procedure?

You can certainly have both procedures performed at the same time.  The surgery should take no more than six hours total.  If the surgery takes longer than six hours, I will usually perform them separately.

You can definitely do these procedures at the same time.  The only thing that I strongly recommend at my surgical facility is to stay overnight if the surgery is longer than 8 hours. For your recovery, it may be nice to only have the downtime all at once.  Good Luck!

Multiple procedures can be combined in the same operative room setting as long as the operative time does not exceed 6 hours.  The same surgeons or a team of surgeons can work together to improve both your face and breast appearance.  

If you are healthy and do not smoke it is safe to do these procedures in the same operative setting safely. I prefer to do these in healthy patients only and in non-smokers only. The procedures would be done in an outpatient day surgery setting with a one or two overnight stay. The facial dressing would be removed prior to going home after the second night’s stay.  

It is not uncommon for patients to have more than one cosmetic surgery procedure at a time. As I exclusively specialize in faces, I will perform blepharoplasty and facelift, or rhinoplasty and facelift, in a single procedure. One important issue is surgical time, where in my hands, few surgeries ever take more than 3 ½ hours, which helps speed up recovery and reduces risk. Another issue is specialization by your surgeon, where the natural separation is between faces and body work. In my office, my associate will perform the breast or other body work while I perform the facial work, assuring patients of the shortest surgery time and having work by specialists in that area.
