Was considering a breast reduction. Wanted to know if liposuction could be done at the same time, specifically the braroll and stomach area. My concern is, after a breast reduction you've got to sleep on your back, so would liposuction still be possible at the same time?

Answer: Breast Reduction and Liposuction at the Same Time? If you are in good health, these procedures can be done together. Be sure to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to learn what options are available to you. Good luck.

Answer: Multiple procedures at once Thank you for your question.Yes, it is possible to have those procedure at the same time. But first, for safety reasons, to be a good candidate for the procedures you want at the same time, your labs and cardiovascular preoperative evaluation must be optimal. Kind Regards,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Answer: Can a breast reduction and liposuction on the back and abdomen be done at the same time? Photos would be beneficial in providing feedback to your questions. These two procedures can be performed by an expert at both procedures at the same time with favorable outcome, one recovery, and less expense. If you have reached a safe, stable weight, and are otherwise healthy, you can be considered for lipo of back and abdomen and breast reduction surgery at the same time. The safe maximum amount that can be liposuctioned in an outpatient setting is 5 liters in one surgery. Lipo is a terrible weight loss tool but a great contouring tool. Most plastic surgeons reserve liposuction for contouring stubborn fatty areas that diet and exercise cannot remove. Swelling and healing as well as scar maturation can persist for 6 months and sometimes up to 1 year following liposuction. PSs have different post-operative protocols based upon their experience and training; some recommend adjustable garments; others, body boards and foam. I recommend following your PS's advice for the best recovery.
