Hello, I recently had tummy tuck but I'm also interested in breast lift. How long should I wait until I can have the next procedure? What is the best estimated wait time? Please let me know. Thank you!
Answer: Breast lift after TT I often will do these two procedures at the same time. If you have had your TT already, I would suggest waiting until you feel physically ready. 4 weeks would be an ample amount of time. Most patients could have the surgery sooner.

Answer: Tummy tuck & breast lift Generally each surgeon is different with their approaches. I usually do both at the same time although it varies from patient to patient. Given you have already done the tummy tuck I would suggest waiting 2 months before the breast lift.

Answer: Breast Augmentation Good Morning. Thank you for your question. Sometimes in my office we do multiple procedures during the same day. However, now that you have already had the TT, I would suggest you heal first before having your breast aug. Your body is now in recovery mode and anything added at this time is just extra stress that can take away from your healing. Waiting at least 6 - 8 weeks will give your body more strength to deal with the recuperation from the breast surgery itself. I hope this helps a little. If you are going to the surgeon who did your TT, then I would refer to him as he may have his own set of protocols for back to back surgery. If you are looking for a new surgeon, make sure you seek out a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who specializes in Breasts!! Best Wishes!

Answer: Next procedure Thank you for this question. Although, the shortest time is 2 weeks, I would recommend you give yourself a chance to heal and plan your next surgery in 6-8 weeks. I hope this helps and good luck
