24 Oct Combining Procedures Can Save Time And Money
For many women, they desire procedures such as breast augmentations, breast lifts, tummy tucks and mommy makeovers be combined into a single surgery. Â It is imperative to remember that all safety concerns be addressed and discussed with your carefully chosen surgeon beforehand. Combination surgery should only happen when combining cosmetic procedures is the very best option for the patient. Every woman has a distinctive situation, so multiple aesthetic procedures will naturally have different outcomes for different people.
What Are  The Advantages Of Combining Breast Augmentations, Breast Lifts And Tummy Tucks?
Saving time and money are two of the most obvious advantages to having more than one cosmetic procedure performed in a single surgery. Another would be that should the patient require only one surgery, it results in a single recovery period, as opposed to multiple surgeries requiring a much longer recovery period, possibly resulting in extra time off work, not to mention a multitude of consultations with your plastic surgeon.
Another big advantage to combining breast augmentations, breast lifts, mommy makeovers and tummy tuck procedures is the lowered cost to both surgeon and their facility, which factors down to you having savings, as well. Undergoing multiple surgeries at once requires a single anesthesiologist, one consultation, and one hospital bed. This will reduce the overall cost for your surgeon, and reduce the cost of your overall combination procedure.
Some Disadvantages Of Combining Breast Augmentations, Breast Lifts, and Tummy Tucks
Combining aesthetic procedures can give rise to a number of complications. While a single dose of anesthetic and requiring the services of an anesthetist only once may be less costly, there would need to be a higher dose administered, which, depending on the individual, could affect the body negatively. The more procedures, the longer a person will be under anesthetic leading to an increase in the chance of potential complications. Having different areas of the body addressed in surgery, such as the tummy area and the breast area, poses a lengthy and naturally a more uncomfortable recovery period.
Combining plastic surgery procedures is possible, but as mentioned, it presents both advantages and disadvantages, which need to be discussed with your plastic surgeon. Above all else, ensure that your surgeon is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with experience and referrals, ask to see before and after pictures of his surgeries and make sure have an open and honest rapport with him or her. You should be able to communicate freely.
