I' m looking to get gynecomastia (w/gland removal) + abdominoplasty + liposuction in the flanks, abdomen, back. I also have some fat under the chin so would get liposuction in the submental. Was told surgery would take approx 4.5-5 hours. Is it common and advisable to get so many areas done in one surgery. Would it be safer to have a smaller surgery first. I figured it’s better to have all areas done in one surgery for cost and also not have to go through multiple surgeries/recovery times
