I'm considering a Mommy Makeover (tummy tuck, breast lift) and wondered about having additional liposuction in various areas at the same time. Could I have liposuction on my inner thighs, saddle bags and rear hips during the same surgery or is that too much? If it makes a difference, I've recently lost 25 pounds (and still going!) so it would likely be be more shaping and smoothing lipo as opposed to large amounts of fat removal. Thanks in advance for your help!

Answer: Liposuction together with mommy makeover. From what you have described you are not going to require a very high volume liposuction and this can usually safely be done at the same time as the other procedures. This also may give you the opportunity to use the fat for fat grafting to add extra coverage of your implants on your breasts and also to add volume to buttocks if necessary.Good luck.

Answer: Liposuction with Mommy Makeover Thanks for your question! I would agree with the others that really the issue here, that is of paramount importance, is your safety. It's great to do a lot of combination surgeries at once from a cost effectiveness and recovery standpoint, but as I always tell me patients, we don't want you to be the best looking person in the funeral home! Although in my experience of doing hundreds of mommy makeovers I routinely perform SAL of the lateral breasts & flanks, I would shy away from doing too much other SAL, it's just not worth the health risks. Discuss this however with your own plastic surgeon. Best of luck to you!
