Hello! I want to get lipo, breastlift and a lower facelift done. I have found my surgeons but have to divide into two separate times. How long should I wait after facelift to proceed with lipo and breastlift? Thank you for any advice in advance. Sincerely
Answer: Three to six months Dear Drifandri, thank you for your question! Typically, surgeons recommend waiting around 3 to 6 months after a facelift before undergoing additional procedures like liposuction and a breast lift. This time allows the initial swelling to resolve, incisions to heal, and tissues to stabilize, giving you the best possible outcomes for each procedure. Healing timelines can vary based on individual factors, so it’s a good idea to follow your surgeon’s specific advice for optimal recovery. Wishing you all the best for your procedures and recovery!

Answer: Answer You should generally wait about 6 to 12 weeks after a facelift before proceeding with liposuction and a breast lift. This allows sufficient time for the facelift incisions to heal and reduces the risk of complications. However, always consult with your facelift surgeon and the surgeons performing the other procedures to get personalized recommendations based on your specific recovery and overall health.

Answer: Timing of Multiple Procedures Thank You for your query. I would recommend waiting for six weeks after the body procedures or when you feel fully recovered. I have, however, done these procedures as few as two weeks apart, when less time is available. Please discuss this with your Plastic surgeon who can help you with all your concerns. All the best!

Answer: How long should I wait after facelift to proceed with lipo and breast lift? Hello @drifandri, thanks for your question. In my practice I usually recommend patients to wait at least 3 months so that they can have a successful and dedicated recovery for facial surgery and later for body surgery considering the complexity of both procedures. A consultation with a board-certified surgeon is important to establishing a surgical plan that meets your needs, expectations, and takes into account what is possible. Best wishes!
