i'm scheduled to get liposuction breast reduction under local anestesia in a month from a doctor who specialises in that area and i wanted to also get liposuction butt fat grafting immediately after from another surgeon who specialises in that area as well but most likely this will be done under general anestesia.is it possible for me to do the fat grafting 4 days after breast liposuction or how long will i have to wait before i get my fat grafting done?
Answer: Duration of time between surgeries First of all, I would agree with the surgeons who stated that most Board Certified Plastic Surgeons are capable of performing both the liposuction breast reduction and fat transfer to the buttocks, and it makes the most sense to both at the same time. This way you are not wasting any fat that is being aspirated, and you can have one surgical procedure.

Answer: Surgery can be separated in time, but why do that? If you are healthy, there is little risk to having two surgeries several days apart, but I am confused, why are you going to two different surgeons, and why have you chosen liposuction as your breast reduction technique? For many reasons, this is not a standard approach to safe and aesthetic reduction in breast volume. Most, if not all surgeons certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery can and do do breast reduction surgery. Not all have adopted fat grafting to the buttocks as a commonly done procedure, also for a variety of reasons. However, you should be able to find one surgeon who is experienced with both procedures; it should not be necessary to have two different doctors for this surgical combination.

Answer: Fat injection after liposuction there does not appear to be a contraindication to having both procedures done 4 days apart. If, however, you do not feel well during your few days of convalescence, give your body a chance to heal more and delay the fat injections.

Answer: Indications for liposuction breast reduction Liposuction has been used for breast reduction but is only of use if the excess breast tissue is composed mostly-entirely of fat (which is not always the case) and the skin is sufficiently elastic to shrink after liposuction. This skin only exists in younger patients who incidentally have more breast gland tissue than breast fat tissue. It should really as the sole means of breast reduction for smaller reductions that health insurance commonly does not cover. In fact many health insurance policies specifically state that they do not cover breast reduction by liposuction alone.
