Which should be done first, lipo or breast augmentation?

Question

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

You can do both procedures at the same time. I suggest you see a VASER 4D contouring expert who does full body contouring.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for your question.  Depending on what needs to be done, it is very likely that you could combine these procedures together.  If it is a matter of cost, it really will be up to you on what you would like done first.  Get a few consults from board certified plastic surgeons.  Good luck.

Eric Swanson, MD · Answer

You can have a breast augmentation and then lipo, or lipo and then a breast augmentation, or you can have the procedures done simultaneously. Provided you go to an experienced plastic surgeon who does these procedures together frequently, there is no increased risk. Of course the benefit is getting it all done in one operation and recovering from both procedures simultaneously, and the results tend to complement one another. There are plenty of examples of women having combined body/breast procedures on my website. I attached a link. Rather than taking 2 weeks off work, you can take 1 week off (unless your work is very physical) and go on vacation during your second week off, with your enhanced figure!

What procedure you have and in what order depends on your priorities. Procedures can also be combined which can have benefits of one anesthestic but depends on the amount of time needed for recovery and cost. See a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options.

Thanks for the question, this may be a budget question since there is no reason not to perform them at the same time. It is safe and will allow you to only have one anesthetic!GOOD LUCK
