Hysterectomy and tummy tuck at the same time?

A hysterectomy and tummy tuck can usually be performed safely at the same time.  The recovery for both of these procedures is similar.  The need for 2 surgeries, anesthesia and increased recovery time are less with combination surgery, as are usually the total costs.   Make sure you talk this over with your gynecologist and plastic surgeon regarding the risks and benefits.  

If both surgeons agree, then the mini tuck can be done after the hysterectomy. I have done mini and full tucks once the gyn surgeon was finished.

It's a good question. Technically these two operations can be performed together safely. However, make sure that your board-certified plastic surgeon is okay with combining these procedures. Some surgeons would prefer to have your hysterectomy performed first, give you time to heal fully, and then perform a mini- or full tummy tuck during a separate surgery.
