Breast lift & liposculpting: 2 procedures in 1. Any disadvantages?

Dear trianglesquare,
Thank you for your question about the potential disadvantages of undergoing a breast lift and liposculpting simultaneously in one surgical session.
Advantages of Combining Procedures:
Combining a breast lift (mastopexy) with liposculpting can be advantageous, particularly if you are in good health.
Undergoing both procedures together can be more efficient, reducing the total recovery time compared to having two separate surgeries.
It also means undergoing anesthesia once rather than twice, which can be beneficial for your overall health and recovery.
Preoperative Assessment:
Prior to the surgery, comprehensive lab tests and a physical examination will be conducted to ensure your suitability for the combined procedure.
No Significant Disadvantages Noted:
There are no notable disadvantages to combining these procedures, as long as you are deemed a suitable candidate based on your health status.
In conclusion, if you are healthy and your preoperative evaluations are favorable, having a breast lift and liposculpting in one session can be a practical and effective approach.
I hope this response has addressed your concerns and assisted in your decision-making process. Wishing you a successful surgery and a smooth recovery.
Sincerely,
Dr. Katzen

it is common to liposuction with a breast lift. Common areas are armpit, arms and bra fat/upper back. The fat won't redistribute after liposuction.
