Combined Plastic Surgery: What, How, and What To Do?

Deciding to Combining Plastic Surgery Procedures

Combined plastic surgeries are operations in which more than one plastic surgery is performed together at the same time due to a need or request. Two or more operations at the same time should be performed after the doctor’s approval and the patient’s demand.

Ask the Doctor

The most important reason for choosing combined plastic surgery is to allow the patient to overcome the effects of more than one surgery with a single healing process. However, it is very important not to have any health problems and to get approval from the anesthesiologist. Due to the longer duration of anesthesia, it should not be preferred in risky situations. In addition, it is not recommended in older ages. It is also not suitable for people with chronic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes. 

Every patient is unique, and so is every individual. You all have your own personalized goals and priorities.And every patients have different levels of ambition for their cosmetic journey. That’s why your surgeon should offer a personalized surgical plan.

What are the Combined Plastic Surgeries?

Combined plastic surgeries are an important aesthetic surgery procedure that a board-certified plastic surgeon should perform. Your surgeon will guide you through the preparation steps that will help you to complete the entire process safely and achieve the results that you expect.

What are the Aesthetic Operations Frequently Preferred Together?

Combined surgeries can be performed in any part of the body. Generally, the most preferred combined aesthetic surgeries are breast aesthetics (enlargement/reduction/ lifting), tummy tuck, and liposuction. Breast lift and breast augmentation operations can also be done together. Today, butt aesthetics, which are highly demanded, and liposuction tummy tuck surgery are also combined procedures.

Rhinoplasty is also an operation that can be applied in combination with other aesthetic procedures. The nose job is performed with applications such as chin surgeries and lip filling. Along with breast aesthetics, arm and leg aesthetics with a tummy tuck, eyelid and facial aesthetics, eyebrow and/or fat injection, genital aesthetics, and tummy tuck are preferred combined aesthetic surgeries.

Find out All the Details About the Surgery

Before your first consultation with your surgeon, you should learn as much as you can about the surgeries and your surgeon. As a first step, you can review the website of your preferred surgeon, hospital, or clinic. You can visit social media accounts to learn about the experiences of other patients who have had the same surgery or to review their photos.

Preparing a list of the questions you want to ask your surgeon during the first examination ensures that you do not miss any details. Before the examination, when you approach this type of preparation, you will be much more confident and be able to make better decisions for yourself.

What Should and Should not be Done Before Combined Surgery?

Avoid using herbal supplements as well as blood thinners and anti-inflammatory drugs a few weeks before your surgery. If necessary, adjust the schedule of certain prescription medications per the surgeon’s recommendation and in consultation with the prescribing physician.

Stop smoking at least a few weeks before surgery, as it is recommended before all surgeries.

Ask your family/friend for support for the recovery process. If you have a child or a pet, it may be a good idea to arrange for your relative or professional to meet their care and needs.

Do not eat or drink anything for at least eight hours the night before the surgery. Take care to be rested before the operation. On the day of the surgery, be sure to choose comfortable clothes.

Although combined aesthetic surgeries are advantageous in terms of money, time, visual integrity, they may not be suitable for every person. It is very important to share your health history with your doctor in detail. And you should decide on the surgery accordingly.
