Dr. told me I needed to have bunion surgery on both feet a few years ago, I have been putting it off. Am in too much pain to put it off any longer. Could I have breast augmentation, and tummy tuck at the same time as I have one the foot surgeries? Or one of the elective surgeries with each foot surgery? Thank you.

Answer: Risky You don't want to have foot pain, balance problems and the reduced ambulation that comes with bunion surgery while you are trying to recover from a Mommy Makeover.If you are too sedentary after big surgery, the risk of blood clots goes up. If the pain is a big problem, get the feet done first.

Answer: Plastic surgery and bunion surgery You may need a cane or crutches while recovering from you bunionectomy which may be difficult to manage after a breast augmentation and tummy tuck. Most breast implants are placed under the pectoral muscle (submuscular) which can interfere with crutches. Ask your podiatrist about the details of your recovery and then speak with your plastic surgeon about a possible combination procedure.Best wishes,Dr.Bruno
