Less Need for Anesthesia
Anesthesia provides people with a comfortable, pain-free experience while undergoing plastic surgery procedures. However, certain risks come with using anesthesia including vomiting, allergic reactions, increased drowsiness or trouble waking up, muscle aches, and more. By combining your plastic surgery procedures, you may only need to be under anesthesia once rather than multiple times.
Save Money
Oftentimes plastic surgery centers offer discounts when you combine multiple procedures as it is a more effective use of the surgeon’s time. Some areas where you could save may include anesthesia fees, surgeon fees, and even hospital costs if your procedure requires an overnight stay. Always talk with your surgeon to see if there are any special promotional savings available.
Less Overall Recovery Time
Like any surgery, plastic surgeries require healing time. By combining procedures, you can reduce the stress on your body’s systems that multiple surgeries would bring. This could drastically reduce your downtime, allowing you to get back to the activities you love!
A More Dramatic Transformation
Combining plastic surgery procedures allows people to experience a more dramatic transformation. Many people like to opt-in for combinations to address a series of problem areas. One of the most popular combinations is a “mommy makeover” which can include a series of procedures including tummy tucks, liposuction, and even breast implants to help restore a woman’s pre-pregnancy body. Once the swelling goes down, many people gain an immediate confidence boost by seeing multiple areas of the body transformed at once!
Convenience
Life is busy! Preparing for surgery takes a lot of planning — including taking time off work, finding childcare, catching up on household chores, and more. By grouping your sessions, it can reduce the amount of planning you need to do on your part, allowing you to focus on your upcoming results. Plus cost savings, more efficient healing, and less downtime only add to the convenience!
Common Plastic Surgery Combinations
After your initial consultation, your plastic surgeon may suggest combining multiple procedures for faster results, quicker healing, and your overall well-being. Some of the most common plastic surgery combinations are:
- Breast augmentation or breast reduction along with a breast lift
- Eyelid surgery with a brow lift
- A tummy tuck with liposuction
- “Mommy Makeovers”
Is Combining Procedures Right For You?
When you reach out to our expert team at The Vu Center, we will schedule your consultation with one of our two plastic surgeons: Dr. Kim-Chi Vu or Dr. Jared Madsen. During this consultation, our doctors will get to know more about your individual goals, as well as your medical history to rule out any associated risks. By having an open conversation, our team will be able to create an individualized care plan that may include a combination of plastic surgery procedures. Our surgeons may also be able to share results with you by including surgery before and after photos from other patients or using modern imaging technology to show results on your body.
