J. Timothy Katzen, MD, FACS · Answer

Thank you for your question about whether a body lift, BBL, liposuction, and rhinoplasty can be done in one session. I think procedures can be combined. I would suggest you could probably have the body lift, liposuction, and rhinoplasty completed at the same time. During a body lift, the posterior buttock lift is raised it is difficult to insert fat in the flap, therefore I do not suggest combining the BBL with the lower body lift. However, you can have liposuction, body lift, and rhinoplasty performed at the same time. This is completely dependent on your health the results of your bloodwork, EKG, chest x-ray, and the expertise of your plastic surgeon and his surgical team. Thank you for your question regarding if you can do a body lift, BBL, liposuction, and rhinoplasty in one session.

Dear Elii1996,
I understand your concern. It is best however that you consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to determine whether you can have several aesthetic surgeries in one session, as this would depend on various factors including but not limited to your general health condition, the type of anesthesia that will be used, and the type of surgeries that will be performed among others.

Combining procedures is common and considered safe, but there is a limit.  Typically if the procedures will take more than 6 hours in the operating room it is better to have them separated.  From your description of the procedures that interest you it is likely that you will want to break these up into more than one stage.
