Is it possible to get a Tummy Tuck and Brazilian Butt Lift at the same time?

Question

William Franckle, MD, FACS · Answer

Generally
speaking, multiple surgeries can be performed at the same time if the operating
surgeon feels that it is safe after reviewing medical risks and benefits.
Statistically we know that there are more complications when surgeries are long
or we do multiple surgeries at once. It is up to the operating surgeon to
manage these risks on an individual basis with each patient.

In select candidates, the two surgeries can be performed together for fantastic results.Try to research this to find the surgeon who consistently produces the 
results you would expect.  Look at reviews on this site and see who gets the surgery right every time.  Find
 a  board certified plastic surgeon who performs hundreds of Brazilian 
buttlifts and tummy tucks each year.  Then look at the plastic surgeon's   
website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can   
deliver the results.  Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Yes, it is possibly to have a tummy tuck and Brazilian but lift performed together.  Often liposuction of the back, flanks and thighs is performed with a tummy tuck.  The fat is normally discarded, however If you are considering buttock augmentation with fat grafting (Brazilian buttock lift) the fat would not go to waste.  The procedure would require position changes.  I would start with fat harvesting and then buttock fat grafting followed by turning the patient over and performing the abdominoplasty (tummy tuck).

By now you may have noticed that the answer is; yes. But the question is not "can they be done at the same", the question is "who should do them". All surgeries carry risks, and the longer the surgery the more the risks. Choose wisely. See a board certified plastic surgeon who does a  ton of combined t.t. and bbls, and who has privileges to do these two surgeries at university hospital near you, and you'll be in good hands. good luck.

Dear posh388,I prefer not to perform both procedures at the same time as recovery from a tummy tuck is best on your back, while recovery from a Brazilian butt lift is best on your tummy, or side-to-side. It will cost a little more to have two separate surgeries, but I would rather not compromise my patients' results.Food for thought..Best of luck with the decision making,James
