40 Something Remodel........Lift It, Shift It and Remove It!!!!

I have a date set with Dr Salama for a Bbl on 8/11 and I also wanted a breast lift, I had a reduction done before. My husband is afraid of me having the surgery so I wanted to both done at the same time but I was told it would have to be at least 2 months apart, so I was not given a date for the breast lift. I have seen his before & after pics and I am impressed also he was very nice at my consult.

Hi! The reason you can't and shouldn't do both is because they are on opposite sides of body. During BBL, there is a time during surgery that you need to be on your stomach, therefore you'd be compressing your breasts. If you had a breast lift done, and then have to apply your body weight onto them, you can cause rupture of incisions and infections. That's why they need to be done separately. Some surgeons will do it, and won't really care about this and have you deal with all of the complications associated with this double procedure. I hope this clarifies as to why both can't be done together.

Thanks for the response dr...totally understandable

My pleasure. patient safety is first above all. Be well.

Dr. Salama I think you're the doctor I am. In search of to conduct my BBL. I was almost convinced from your previous patients testimonies, but your feedback provided here has me at 100% convinced. Now I just have to see if I can get time of from the military to get this done

All_in glad to hear and if you have any further sustains, don't hesitate. Contact Nancy or Cynthia since spots are limited, but they'll be sure to help you find a spot that works for you. Have a great day.

Congrat's on your sx date!! It's encouraging that Dr. Salama voices his concern for the patient's well being as opposed to trying to please the patient and dealing with complications later. Also, waiting the 2 months for the breast lift gives me plenty of time to come up with something else for him to do :):). I'm interested in supplies so please keep me posted. Although my sx won't be until '16 i have already begun to research places to purchase supplies and I have a list of questions for Nancy or Cynthia. I will try my best to post at least once a week :) to keep up and to share
