I've had a consultation with a Canadian plastic surgeon. He states that his incisions are low and straight across for the Tummy Tuck. There are other women who have posted that their incision is higher than expected. Also, we have not discussed the belly button, which seems to be an issue for other gals who have posted on their Tummy Tuck. Maybe I need to ask more questions. He also will be doing Liposuction on my outer thighs and a neck lift. Is this too much surgery for one day?
Answer: Multiple Procedures As long as you are healthy combining those surgeries together should not pose excessive risks.

Answer: Tummy Tuck, Liposuction, and Neck Lift Can Be Safe in One Surgery for the Right Patient Thank you for your question regarding whether having a tummy tuck, liposuction, and a neck lift is too much to perform in one day. For the right patient, this combination of procedures can be safely done in one surgery. However, it’s essential that you are in good health, and your surgeon should carefully evaluate your overall medical condition before moving forward.

Answer: Combination Surgery Safe? Thank you for the question. Combination surgical procedures are done on a routine basis. However, it is best to evaluate each patient on an individualized basis. During this consultation process, after a complete history and physical, the SAFETY of combining these surgical procedures becomes of paramount importance. Factors such as selection of plastic surgeon, exact procedures planned, estimated blood loss, duration of surgery, recovery considerations, anesthesia provider, duration of surgery, surgery facility are all important considerations.

Answer: Neck lift and lipo is not too much for one day The amount of surgery really depends on the individual patient. However, tummy tuck, lipo and neck lift is generally not too much for one day as long as they keep the surgery less than 6 hours and you are in good health and under the care of competent anesthesiologists and staff. As for the incisions, you need to discuss the operative plan with your surgeon prior to the surgery so you are both on the same page. Good luck with your surgery.
