Can I get breast Implant revision & tummy tuck w/diastasis recti correction together? (Photos)

Hello,
Yes, it is a common procedure that is done together. Meet with a board-certified plastic surgeon for an in-person examination to come up with a plan. The abdominoplasty will help address the loose skin, repair muscle separation. For the implant exchange if you are currently sub-muscular, removing the implant and starting fresh on top of the muscle under the sub fascial layer.

Thank you for submitting your question and including photos! Yes, a revision to your breasts by removing and replacing your implants can be done at the same time as an Abdominoplasty. An Abdominoplasty includes muscle repair of the diastasis recti muscle as well as liposuction of the abdomen. I recommend scheduling a consult with a board certified plastic surgeon like myself so we can create a surgical plan based on your goals.

Thank you for your question. It is possible to undergo a single surgical procedure for breast implant revision, tummy tuck, and diastasis recti correction. It is best to consult a board-certified surgeon to address the bottoming out of your implants and adjust the size and profile. They will evaluate your case, including the condition of your present implants, the severity of diastasis recti, and your general health, to determine the best course of action.

Hi- thank you for your question. You definitely can get the implant revision and tummy tuck performed together. This would be similar to a breast augmentation and a tummy tuck performed together which is done all the time. Best to speak to a board certified plastic surgeon. All the best,

This combination of surgery is absolutely possible and in fact is very common. These procedures can be combined with an efficient use of time and with a likely excellent result given the pictures you have provided.

Hello, it is very common to have a breast procedure, including a revision, with a tummy tuck. Please take enough time to recover which is very important with any surgery, and especially with revision breast surgery and bottoming out as there will be more stitching done to repair the bottoming out. Best of luck with your procedure! Dr. Daiza

Dear Ivault3,
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.

It's quite common for individuals to undergo a tummy tuck with muscle repair (diastasis recti correction) in conjunction with breast augmentation or breast revision surgery. This combination of procedures is often referred to as a "Mommy Makeover."

A Mommy Makeover typically addresses various bodily changes that can occur following pregnancy and childbirth, but it's also tailored to meet individual aesthetic goals. In your case, it sounds like you're interested in correcting the bottoming out of your implants and altering the size and profile of the implants for a different aesthetic.

Combining these surgeries can have several benefits, such as a single recovery period, which means you'll be dealing with downtime from work and other activities only once. Additionally, undergoing both procedures simultaneously allows your surgeon to work towards a harmonious, proportionate result across your entire torso, since they can address the abdomen and breasts in relation to one another.

However, it's critical to ensure you're in good health before undergoing multiple procedures at once, as this can increase operation time and, with it, risks associated with surgery and anesthesia. A board-certified plastic surgeon can assess your individual case, taking into account your medical history, current health status, and specific aesthetic goals to determine whether you're a good candidate for combined procedures. They will also guide you on what you can realistically expect from the surgery.

Please make sure to discuss your concerns and desires thoroughly with your plastic surgeon during your consultation to ensure a safe and satisfactory outcome.

Sincerely,
Dr. Katzen

Hello, I am Dr. Salvador Garcia from Guadalajara, Mexico, you are a good case to look spectacular, I would recommend doing tummy tuck and inverted T Mastopexy with implant revision, and placing the implants below the muscle.

Thank you for sharing your question and pictures. It's certainly possible to combine breast implant revision and a tummy tuck with diastasis recti correction in a single surgical session. Combining procedures can reduce overall recovery time and provide a more comprehensive transformation. Given that you're considering downsizing your implants and opting for a higher profile, addressing both concerns together can ensure a harmonious result. However, the most crucial factor is your overall health and safety. It would be best to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon to evaluate your specific circumstances and ensure you're a suitable candidate for combined procedures. Best wishes on your upcoming journey!
