Can I get knee surgery the same week as my breast augmentation?

Thanks for your question. I agree with the others who are not in favor of both surgeries being done at a similar time. Theoretically there is the increased risk of infection. More of an issue however is the increased need to use your arms to help support you following your knee surgery. Crutches would be a disaster. Sorry to disappoint. Best of Luck!

If the knee surgery is small (i.e. arthroscopy), and if the orthopedic surgeon doesn't think you will have difficulty walking afterwards, it may be possible to get both surgeries during the same week.  This should not be done without the approval of both surgeons however.

Although seems like a good idea to have both the operations during your vacation time I would not advise it. I would definitely have your knee operation. I would at least wait six weeks after your knee operation plus clearance from your orthopedic surgeon to have your breast augmentation. If you have both during the same time period it will be a difficult recovery. You're going need your upper body strength to help you with your knee recovery. If you have a breast augmentation you will have minimal upper body strength and the inability to use your body and that will make your recovery very difficult.
