Full body transformation. Tummy tuck with lipo. Lipo of back, thighs and behind. And BBL. I see conflicting info about doing it all at once?? I see patients who have done it and look great and I see doctors comments saying no, have to do TT and BBL separate. I'm hoping this isn't the case, I don't want to be under anesthesia more than I have too (nor do I want to pay too). Plus taking 2 weeks off work is already a task. Is this true or can I have a one stop shop??
Answer: Tummy Tuck Thanks for the question. Yes, you can get a BBL, liposuction and tummy tuck at the same time. But first of all you need to lose some more kilos. After you lose kilos, you should meeting with a Board Certified Surgeon and planning the process. After planning, everything will be better. I wish you all the best.

Answer: Combining procedures There is a difference between procedures which "could" be performed simultaneously and those which "should" be performed simultaneously.

Answer: I want tummy tuck, lipo and BBL all st once. Thank you for your question. If your BMI is 30 or less, than this is the way to go. I do this all the time in my practice, and there’s no increased fat loss from the BBL. I use VASER Hi Def liposuction to sculpt the torso, including the abdomen and do a full abdominoplasty via a small pubic incision. If your BMI is greater than 30, I might stage the procedure for best results. The body sculpting with the fat transfer is done first, followed by a TT 3-6 months later.I do these procedures under intravenous sedation only, not general or epidural anesthesia.You have to ask yourself, do you want a great long term result or since you are willing to take only two weeks off for recovery, you rather have an average procedure? Something to think about.See a board certified plastic surgeon experienced in advanced body sculpting techniques for an in person consultation/evaluation. Good luck.

Answer: I want tummy tuck, lipo and BBL all at once. This is a common combination I perform several times each week for healthy patients who are good candidates for both. Total operative time is usually 4 hours.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Answer: I want tummy tuck, lipo and BBL all at once. I would consider several consultations with board-certified plastic surgeons in your area. Most surgeons will combine procedures if they can be completed in less than six hours. I personally separate BBL and tummy tuck procedures, because I feel that the overall safety profile is better when separated. Also, recovery after a combination tummy tuck and BBL is challenging, because finding a comfortable position during the recovery is very difficult. After a tummy tuck you recover with your hips flexed, but a BBL requires that you take pressure off your buttocks. Speak with your surgeon about their specific recommendations.
