Hi I'm going to Colombia to have lipo laser, TT, Breast Uplift w/ Implants and BBL (fat transfer to the butt) and I'm wondering if it is safe to have all of these procedures done at the same time without any complications.

Answer: Multiple Procedures and Safety of 7 Hours of Anesthesia 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 #BeastSurgery are performed. Additional procedures can include liposuction, umbilical hernia repair. The most common #breastprocedures include #mastopexy or #breastlift, #breastaugmentation, #breastreduction. Pregnancy along with aging result in weight fluctuations that can have a substantial impact on a woman’s body. It may cause loss of volume in areas such as breasts and buttocks and even affect the fat distribution in the face.It causes fat to be deposited in other unwanted areas, like your hips or thighs. It stretches the abdominal wall skin and muscle tone. And you can actually approach each of those areas and rejuvenate them and in some cases, make them better than before pregnancy. It’s always best to be at your ideal stable weight.Combined operations are also 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 noted above. If you require a gynecologic operation or study (laparoscopy) and are considering a plastic surgery procedure, discuss these issues with your doctor. Combining these procedures decreases anesthetics, costs, and recovery time.The safety of the length and type of anesthesia for your procedure will be best determined during consultation with your plastic surgeon. Make sure to discuss all of your questions closely with him both before and after surgery. Good luck.

Answer: Safety concerns I think you are increasing your risk of complications and possibly risking getting low quality results. The recommendation for elective plastic surgery is to keep surgical time to 6 hours or less. In addition you are traveling abroad where you will be far away from your surgeon if any issues arise, and could run into issues finding a surgeon to assume your care in the U.S.. For your safety and optimal results a board certified plastic surgeon in the United States is the best route.
