Brachioplasty Following an Extended Tummy Tuck - how long should I wait?
Puppy_LoverSep 27, 2025
How long should I wait to have the bracchioplasty following an extended tummy tuck? I’ve lost a considerable amount of weight and will likely have 2-3 surgeries to address . I know my first will be an extended tummy tuck, which will be a lengthy recovery before I can be back to doing full -body exercises (Pilates). Is it possible, since I will have “down time’ from exercising, to overlap the recoveries and have the bracchioplasty 2 weeks or a month after the TT? Or is that a recipe for misery and disaster? I hate the idea of being away from working out, and while I know that “doubling up” procedures would extend that initial down time, the total down time would conceivably be less. Thoughts?
