How long do I have to wait after a BBL to get a breast lift with implants?

Question

I want a round 2 bbl first then I want to get my breast lift immediately after how long should I wait

Daniel Barrett, MD · Answer

Dear misschyna1630,you should consider another elective surgery, once you are fully healed. But every plastic surgeon has his own postoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.Daniel Barrett, MD

Sounds like you want to have another BBL procedure done follow by a breast lift with implants. I would generally recommend waiting approximately 3 months between the BBL and the breast lift surgery. Primarily because you want the BBL and the fat in that area to completely take and be well vascularized before you have another surgery done where you may have to lay on your backside for the first several weeks.

David A. Sieber, MD, FACS · Answer

It sounds like you've already had your BBL done. I typically tell patients that they need to be pretty well healed from the first surgery before having another one. This means waiting 3-6 months between procedures. I commonly perform BBLs and breast surgery at the same time. The recovery is not much worse and it saves you money on your surgery fees.Best,~Dr. Sieber

A BBL and and a breast lift are able to be performed at the same time. I understand that you may not want to, but keep in mind that it will definitely save you money in the long run to combine procedures. So, to answer your question, no wait is required at all if you do choose to have them done separately. It would be totally up to you and when you felt ready. Good luck!

Hi. Those 2 procedures are combinable, I perform them frequently.I do not understand why you are dividing them into 2 separate surgical times. I would recommend you to do it all at once if your hemoglobin level is high enough (13 grams), there is no need for you to get exposed  to 2 anesthesias, 2 separated procedures, 2 recovery periods, etc.

If you have not had and problems with your BBL procedure, it should be safe to have a breast lift/augmentation in 3 months following the BBL.  Check, first, with your surgeon for their recommendation in your case.  Best wishes, Dr Lepore.
