What treatments can be combined? Can a mini facelift and lipo in several areas be performed together?

Thank you for your question. Determining the right procedures for you will require an in-person evaluation, though generally speaking, many patients elect to have more than one surgery at a time. By combining multiple procedures into one surgery, you can shorten your overall recovery time while achieving more enhanced results.

I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon. They will be able to discuss your concerns and goals with you and help you decide on the best course of action.

Greetings from Istanbul, thank you for this question. Liposuction and mini facelift are two procedures that we actually combine quite frequently. However, it would be best to assess your overall health and the size of the area that needs liposuction before saying anything for certain. Your surgeon would determine the best course of action after examining you in person. Hope this helps!

Working in combination with your anesthesiologist, you should be able to create a plan for liposuction and a mini facelift. This allows you a single surgery and single recovery and reduces your cost. Safety dictates the total time should be kept under 6 hours and the liposuction volume under 5000 cc’s. Your liposuction should be done first so you are not getting turned and rotated after your mini facelift. Other considerations are your overall health, so if there are concerns, you should get medical clearance from your primary care doctor. Best wishes.

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan. It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Liposuction of the neck is frequently performed with face/neck lift, when needed. This is best to be discussed with your surgeon. Good luck.

We frequently combine facelift procedures with other facial cosmetic procedure such as a forehead lift, eyelid surgery or rhinoplasty. Depending on what you're trying to accomplish, it's always best to make a consultation with three different surgeons in your area. Study your prospective surgeon's facelift photo Gallery to make sure that it is extensive with natural results that you like. Also important to ask how long you'll be placed under general anesthesia to accomplish your goals
