I am wanting to get a breast lift. About 5 years ago I had lipo on my stomach and there is some extra skin on my stomach that healed weird. Wondering if I get a breast lift and there will already been an incision there, if the stomach skin could get pulled up at the same time and give me a flatter stomach?

Answer: Breast lift & reverse tummy tuck Dear 29292929, I understand your concern. It is best however that you consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to determine whether you can have several aesthetic surgeries in one session, as this would depend on various factors including but not limited to your general health condition, the type of anesthesia that will be used, and the type of surgeries that will be performed among others.

Answer: Breast lift & reverse tummy tuck? Could the stomach skin get pulled up at the same time? Thanks so much for your question, breast lift (mastopexy) and a reverse tummy tuck can be performed simultaneously, and it’s possible for the stomach skin to be pulled up as part of the reverse tummy tuck procedure. Because the incisions for both procedures can be located in the same area (beneath the breasts), it’s possible to perform both a breast lift and a reverse tummy tuck during the same surgery. The upper abdominal skin can be pulled upward and tightened at the same time that the breasts are lifted. A consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon is the best way to explore this option further and develop a customized surgical plan that aligns with your aesthetic goals. Sincerely, Dr. Emmanuel Mallol
