Hi! I am a 43 year old who has lost 60 kilos post weight loss surgery I am a single Mum with a kid with a disability so I am trying to work out how having a neck, arm, breast, thigh lift and tummy tuck would be grouped together in one or more surgeries. I know each plan is individual per patient, but I was wondering how best to plan my year ahead as I have a lot of lose skin and I notice it in my daily life. I know there will be revisions, but I need a rough idea so I can plan care for my kiddo

Answer: Mommy Makeover In order to minimize the risk of prolonged surgery and minimize anesthesia time, usually these procedures ideally should be staged. This also will smoothen the recovery time and facilitate healing. I usually stage these procedures for my patients depending on their priorities with out exceeding 6 hours of surgical time. This is usually enough time to cover two major surgical procedures. A good combination would be body and breast as one stage , thighs and arms as second stage and face and neck 3rd stage. Again this can be adjusted based on my patient's priorities.
