How long should you wait after liposuction to get breast augmentation?

Hi there, both procedure liposuction and breast augmentation can be performed at the same time only if you are a candidate for liposuction. That's why it's important to get a consultation with your board certificate surgeon.  

These procedures can often can be combined into one trip to the operating room.  If there are specific reasons you want them separated, I would advise waiting 6 months so that any liposuction touch ups could be done during the breast augmentation.  Many plastic surgeons perform both procedures, so it may not be necessary to have two surgeons.

These can be done together - for example, during the mommy makeover, I perform breast augmentation with liposuction of the flanks, and a tummy tuck.Clearly, it can be done by the same plastic surgeon.If you have a large amount of liposuction done, I would advise waiting a minimum of 4+ weeks to fully recover, before doing the augmentation portion.  If you wait 5-6 months, then any touch-up's (if needed) could potentially be done at the same time.

The procedures can be done together but if you wanted to do them separately you may want to wait till one heals to see the results and then do the other.  Although, I frequently do liposuction and then the day later my partner will do breast.  It is really up to the physician.  Best, Dr. Emer.

The amount of time you should wait after liposuction before another cosmetic procedure is for full healing to occur from the liposuction. This will then allow to see the final results of the liposuction and determine if there is any need for a 'touchup'. This could then be conveniently done at the time of the breast augmentation. This would be somewhere between 3 and 6 months after the liposuction. This also speaks to the potential advantages of having both body procedures done by the same plastic surgeon.
