Would it be more than 8 weeks between procedures? Is it safe to have a scheduled hysterectomy and mommy makeover performed at the same time?
Answer: Hysterectomy and mommy makeover
That would depend on what your definition of mommy makeover is and what type of hysterectomy you have. I think most plastic surgeons would be willing to do a tummy tuck at the same operation as a hysterectomy. I don't think most plastic surgeons would be willing to place breast implants at the same time as a hysterectomy. I for one would be worried about infecting the implant.
My response to your question/post does not represent formal medical advice or constitute a doctor patient relationship. You need to consult with i.e. personally see a board certified plastic surgeon in order to receive a formal evaluation and develop a doctor patient relationship.

Answer: Time Between a Major Surgery and Cosmetic Procedures The time between having electoral #cosmetic surgery after a major surgery depends on the surgery. Its best to consult with the surgeon or specialist you recently had the major surgery with to gain perspective as to when cosmetic surgery can be scheduled. 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 #BreastSurgery are performed. Additional procedures can include liposuction, umbilical hernia repair. The most common #breastprocedures include #mastopexy or #breastlift, #breastaugmentation, or #breastreduction. All surgical procedures carry some degree of #risk. Always discuss your issues and concerns with the Plastic Surgeon during and following your consultation. Information that you read online may not apply to your personal situation. The suitability of your procedures and any specific risks may be determined during you #consultation.

Answer: If not done together, wait 6-8 weeks between procedures. It’s not unusual for patients to undergo abdominoplasty and hysterectomy in combination.This procedure can be performed safely and yields excellent results.The combination of hysterectomy and Mommy Makeover is a much larger procedure.Unfortunately, this procedure will require more time in the operating room and raises concern about safety.For this reason, these procedures should probably be staged to minimize the potential for complications. A period of six to eight weeks between procedures would be appropriate providing the first procedure was uncomplicated.It’s also important to note that delaying the Mommy Makeover might have other advantages.Under these circumstances, this cosmetic procedure could be performed in an outpatient surgery center.This might translate into significant financial savings.

Answer: Tummy Tuck and Hysterectomy Together?
Thank you for the question.
Assuming you are in good health and medically “cleared” for a longer procedure than these two procedures can be safely done at the same time. I would personally not do more than these two ( for example no additional breast surgery) at the same time.
I hope this helps.

Answer: How long should I wait to have a Mommy Make Over after a hysterectomy? I would not recommend performing a breast procedure especially one with an implant at the same time as a hysterectomy. The chance for infection is increased and not worth the risk.If you had a vaginal hysterectomy with an uncomplicated recovery it would be reasonable to proceed with a Mommy Make Over 6-8 weeks later.If however you underwent an abdominal hysterectomy I would recommend waiting 8-12 months to allow for complete healing of the abdominal wall. Good luck
