I want a BA (which is scheduled in 2 weeks) and a TT but I can't afford them together at the moment. My PS said they would actually only charge me the Mommy makeover price when I did get to get it done. My question is, can a TT be preformed after a BA and it not affect your BA? I know the skin is pulled tight so wouldn't that pull the breast down as well? I decided on the BA first bc recovery time is shorter and school is around the corner. Leaving the TT until summer starts. Thanks!

Answer: Tummy tuck after a breast augmentation A tummy tuck can certainly be performed after a breast augmentation without affecting the location of your breast augmentation scar. Discuss this with your plastic surgeon but I have never seen an issue with this combination or sequence of surgeries.Best wishes,Dr.Bruno

Answer: Breast Augmentation and Tummy Tuck: Mommy Makeover The mommy makeover really is anything you want it to be!I have used labiaplasty (vaginal rejuvenation), abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), mastopexy (breast lift), breast augmentation, eyelid surgery, and liposuction in various combinations to achieve the mommy makeover.These procedures, however, can be done independently or together without compromising the outcome.Having breast implants first followed by tummy tuck (I would recommend at least 3 months of recovery between procedures) is perfectly fine. Pulling down the tummy skin does not affect the breast implant incision or result.The only word of caution I have with the mommy makeover is the length of surgery. "First do no harm" is a common dictum that we all learn as medical students. I tend to keep any and all combined surgeries under 5 hours of anesthesia to protect the patient from complications such as infection and blood clots (deep vein thrombosis). As I often say in my consultations: Safety first, beauty second.
