Going to get a lower body lift and breast augmentation with lift. I have had a consultation that stated this would be done in two procedures. With the body lift being done first. My question is I have the time and money to get the breast augmentation done now (I could go back to work sooner) but I would have to wait for the lower body lift. In terms of outcome would it be harmful to get my breasts done before the lower body lift? I want to have all my proportions and sizing be correct. Thanks!
Answer: Augmentation Mastopexy with a Lower Body Lift It's difficult to suggest without a in-person one-on-one consultation. The Mommy Makeover is a combination of procedures to bring a woman’s body back to the way she looked prior to pregnancy. Most commonly some variation of a #TummyTuck and #BreastSurgery are performed. Additional procedures can include liposuction, umbilical hernia repair. The most common #breastprocedures include #mastopexy or #breastlift, #breastaugmentation, or #breastreduction.

Answer: Can you combine breast augmentation and lower body lift? Every patient is different and an evaluation by a board certified plastic surgeon is critical to you obtaining a great result. Safety is always paramount, so your surgeon will only suggest what is best for you. Breast augmentation and body lift can definitely be performed as staged procedures. With that said, I would perform the procedure as a combined procedure in select candidates. I would discuss your concerns with your surgeon.Best,Trey Aquadro, M.D.Auburn, AL

Answer: Lower Body Lift vs. Breast Augmentation/Mastopexy While it is certainly not unreasonable to stage these two procedures however you would prefer, I would generally recommend patients to undergo the body lift procedure prior to undergoing breast surgery. With removal of the truncal excess tissue, the proportions of the breast/body will change, and may help you and your surgeon to decide on an ideal surgical solution for your breast procedure. If you have the breast surgery performed first, you may not be quite as pleased with the final result/dimensions once the body lift procedure is completed if the proportions were not what you anticipated. Make sure to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon, and he or she will help you to select the best procedure(s) for you.

Answer: 360 lower body lift circumferential body lift breast augmentation breast lift weight loss surgery combined procedures Hello, I would suggest you have your body lift procedure done first. 1) During the 360 lower body lift or circumferential body lift, the abdominal wall is pulled down. This can pull the inframammary fold (the fold under the breast which attaches the breast to the chest or upper abdominal wall) down.Therefore, if the breast augmentation and breast lift are performed before the 360 lower body lift, the result can be that the breasts are too low.2) After weight loss, reconstructive plastic surgery is all about proportions. During your 360 circumferential body lift, a significant amount of skin and fat will be removed. Your body proportions change. I would choose implant sizes after your body lift has been performed. This leads to a more accurate assessment of the body proportions. This way, your top half will match your bottom half. If you choose your implant size before your body lift, you may regret your implant size choice. You may choose an implant size too large. In my patient practice, I almost always perform the breast lift and breast augmentation after the 360 body lift.I hope this answers your question regarding the staging of a 360 lower body lift or circumferential body lift and breast augmentation and breast lift. If you have any questions, please not hesitate contact me. Sincerely, Dr. Katzen
