15 January, 2019Myths and truths about breast augmentation
19 February, 2019First we must understand that: the combination of different plastic surgeries should only be considered, if it does not increase the risk
Combining several plastic surgeries, apart from using only one anesthetic for several procedures, could reduce the operating cost of plastic surgery, but it is also important that the patient is in excellent health.
It is very common for patients to request several plastic surgery procedures to have a single intervention and thus avoid duplicating the postoperative period.
Now, we must bear in mind that there are certain interventions that can be combined, and they must always have been planned from the beginning, with a concrete plan and having a clear objective.
The surgeries that are in nearby areas with the aim of achieving a complete harmonic result such as the case of correcting two parts of the face, abdomen with breasts, abdomen with thighs, are possible.
In case the zones are far away, a complex intervention is combined with another of less difficulty. As a mammoplasty with blepharoplasty, mammoplasty with otoplasty.
The “mommy makeover” is the best example of combined surgery, since in a single intervention the abdomen is corrected through a tummy tuck that eliminates flaccidity, correction in the breasts (either breast augmentation, reduction or lifting) and body contour through liposuction. So it is possible to improve the radical changes produced by pregnancy. It is one of the combinations with the highest satisfaction results.
What are the advantages of combining plastic surgeries?
- One income only
- A single intervention
- A single recovery
- Significant financial savings
The main advantage is a single clinical income and a single recovery period. The post-operative may take longer and be more uncomfortable, but without a doubt, it would be one, so it becomes more bearable.
We must remember that the cost of combined interventions is usually more economical, since some costs decrease, such as hospitalization, anesthesia, and other operative factors that lead to plastic surgeries.
The success of the combination of interventions depends fundamentally on adequate surgical planning, according to the needs of each patient, where the health and well-being of the patient are paramount.
Some of the most popular combinations
- Abdominoplasty + Liposuction
