I plan to get a neck a lower/ facelift and a BBL this summer. I'm definitely doing separate surgeries. I do not want to deal with the frustration and stress of recovering from both surgeries at the same time. Additionally, I have chosen 2 surgeons because each of then specialize in each surgery I would like to have. I would like to get both done from June 10th -early July because I am off during this time and will have to return July 25th. Which should I get 1st on how long between procedures ?

Answer: Timing of Procedures There really isn't an absolutely correct answer without your input. It depends on which procedure that your prioritize, understanding that a facelift is typically the less painful of the procedures. I agree with your choice of having two Surgeons, each specializing in the individual procedure. Physical limitations after a facelift (which I specialize in) is two weeks avoiding bending over or raising your heart rate, and 4 weeks away from serious workouts.

Answer: BBL first Definitely the BBL first. If you do the facial procedures first, when you go in a short time to receive general anesthesia, the anesthesiologist will have to work around fresh wounds which is not ideal. Provided that your blood count (hematocrit and hemoglobin in specific) are good, you should allow at least 2 weeks. Otherwise, if those numbers are low, you may have to wait until they are back to normal.
