Combining procedures: when it’s safe and when it isn’t
One trip and one recovery is tempting. We combine procedures only within limits that keep you safe.
Written byDr. Valentina OspinaPlastic surgeon, body contouringThe risk of surgery grows with its length. That is the main limit on combining procedures, more than the number of areas.
Our limits
We keep combined surgeries under six hours, use two surgeons when it shortens time and keep you one night in clinic after.
When we say no
When the combination would take longer than that, we plan two trips.
