Thank you for your question. Each Surgeon will have their own protocol they wish to follow when dealing with doing multiple procedures at once. If you healthy and medically cleared it shouldn't be a problem. I would recommend seeing a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in person to evaluate you and discuss your options. Best of luck to you.
Thank you for your question. To provide a valid medical opinion I will need to see pictures of you body from different angles without clothes. I would suggest to be treated by board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results.Respectfully,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-
Your BMI is almost 42, which is 12 points greater than recommended for long procedures because of the increased risk of complications with high BMI’s. Your results from any proposed surgery and your safety would benefit from from weight reduction first.
With a BMI of 41.8 the risks of complications during and after surgery would be high and your final results would be sub-optimal. Recommend that you consult with your PCP who can recommend a diet and exercise program that can help you reach a safe BMI.You could stage the procedures and have the TT done first; then the liposuction and BBL. However, the result will not be as tight as liposuction and BBL first and then TT. Both can be performed at the same time, but the upper abdomen cannot be aggressively liposuctioned at the time of the TT due to blood supply issues.
Dear Aleiyahb2006,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.Daniel Barrett, MDCertified, American Board of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery
Hello,Currently your BMI is 41.2 which puts you in morbidly obese category which is not safe for elective surgery in most countries. I would recommend exercise and weight loss and potentially consulting a bariatric surgeon for weight loss surgery so that you reach a BMI of less then 32 (220lbs) where you will become a safer surgical candidate. At that time you may have lots of skin excess so you may require different operations to deal with that.SincerelyDr.G
At this time it is not recommended that you undergo these procedures due to increased risk. Your BMI is 41.8. For elective plastic surgery it is recommended patients have a BMI of 30 or below. Those above this threshold have increased risk of complications such as poor wound healing, seroma, and infection. Having a BMI below 30 also allows your surgeon to optimize your results.
Unfortunately, your BMI is greater than 39 so you would be too great a risk for such a large surgery.
It would benefit you to lose weight before considering cosmetic surgery.Obesity increases the risk of complications and makes it difficult to get good aesthetic outcomes.For example, most plastic surgeons will limit liposuction to no more than 5 L of fat in a single procedure. The state of Florida limits this to 4 L.5 L of fat is about 8 pounds.Wild 32 sticks of butter may look impressive stacked on a table 8 pounds in comparison to 300 pounds still leaves someone weighing 292 lbs. it simply isn’t very much fat compared to the size of the body.Thick layers of subcutaneous fat increases the chance of wound healing complications for a tummy tuck substantially. worst case scenario could lead to three or more months of wound care with a massive lower abdominal scar.Is adding gluteal volume indicated?Even at 5‘11“ 300 pounds is too heavy for most plastic surgeons to consider you a candidate for cosmetic surgery.I suggest talking to your primary care doctor about a healthy weight loss program or consider programs like weight watchers or overeaters anonymous. Having the support of others going through the same challenges or those who have already done so can be helpful for something that can be very difficult. Best, Mats Hagstrom, MD
