I'm looking for a surgeon that will perform Lipo, BBL, and a tummy tuck in a hospital setting because I have stents. They were placed over 2 years ago and my cardiologist is ok with me not taking aspirin and blood thinners since it's been so long but recommends I have it in a hospital. I need a doctor on the east coast. No further than Georgia though. Can anyone please recommend one?

Answer: BBL and hospital I perform surgeries in hospitals when it is indicated. If your doctor feels that you are healthy enough to undergo the procedure and you can remain off the aspirin for 10 days before and about one week afterwards, then sounds good to me!

Answer: Brazilian butt lift/tummy tuck Thank you for your question.I would recommend when looking for a surgeon to perform your BBL and tummy tuck that you choose one who is board certified. You may also want to look on the ASPS website as this lists board certified plastic surgeons in your area. I would also look at the surgeon’s credentials, memberships, educational background, reviews and before and afters. Before and afters are a good indicator of their techniques and outcomes from BBL/tummy tuck surgeries and reading reviews from other patients is a good way to see what their experience with the doctor was like. Regarding combining the two procedures it is possible to have them both done at the same time but you have to find a doctor willing to do them together. I generally stage these procedures simply because you will have to refrain from sitting on your buttocks for at least 2 weeks after a BBL which means you would need to sleep on your stomach, which may not be optimal when just having a tummy tuck. It is also important to also follow their aftercare instructions as the recovery will be more intense than staging them. This reduces complications and provides for a more comfortable post-operative recovery. Best of luck in your endeavors!
