In many internet forums I often see the question asked:
Can I have another procedure with the brazilian butt lift?
The brazilian butt lift is a butt augmentation procedure which uses your own regenerative fat to enhance your buttocks. In my own practice, it is very common for patients to request a brazilian butt lift and a tummy tuck in the same operative session. I have performed this combination of procedures for many years and I assure you they can be safely performed together.
One factor which allows me to do multiple procedures in the same operative session safely is that I use IV anesthesia instead of general anesthesia. General anesthesia carries much higher risks for long procedures . IV anesthesia allows you to breath on your own , thus dramatically reducing pulmonary anesthesia risks. With IV anesthesia, I can comfortably perform multiple procedures which require 8-10 hours of operative time.
The most common procedure that is performed with the brazilian butt lift is the tummy tuck. The abdominoplasty or tummy tuck actually enhances the effect of the brazilian butt lift, as your tummy and waist line are trimmer. When you combine the two together it is a dramatic transformation!
Occasionally, somebody will ask about combining the breast augmentation with the brazilian butt lift. In most cases, I do not recommend that combination. The brazilian butt lift recovery requires you to lay on your stomach. While that is ok for the tummy tuck recovery, it is not ok if you have just received breast implants. Laying on your breasts immediately following the breast augmentation can cause problems.

I completely agree with you on this one. It really depends on your body type and genetic fat deposition patterns. And yes, all three (exercise, diet, and surgery) really compliment each other.

Dear Admin:
This particular woman in the video does work out. Like you, I think best results are combined excercise, diet, and surgery. Diet will reduce your weight, but not change body proportions (how the fat is distributed) or improve muscle and cardiovascular tone. Excercise will increase cardiovascular and muscle tone, but may not reduce your weight or fat deposition patterns. Surgery will change your body proportions, but will not affect your weight or muscle tone.
Do one of the three and you get a good result. Do two of the three (the old classic is diet and exercise) and you get a great result. Do all three and it’s a life transforming experience. I know, I see it in a number of my patients every year!
I wrote a post about this a while back.

It is also important to note that you need to maintain your body with exercise and diet once this procedure is complete. I can see why they are both very common procedures.

Definitely!
That is what we do and we have a lot of out of town patients coming in to have the surgery done. The procedure is a permanent change of your figure.
We’d love to help you! Contact Kelly at kelly@cosmeticsurg.net, ahe’d be more than glad to talk to you.

Yes, you can have a child if you have had a tummy tuck. The only problem is you might stretch out your tummy tuck repair. Still, I have seen a few patients that had a tummy tuck and then had a baby, they did not look too bad.
