Is it common to have a breast lift and tummy tuck done atthe same time.  I am presently in need of both and just scheduled first appointment for tummy tuck. Now I am thinking i should go back to have them both done at the same time. Let me know good or bad any advice you may have. Thanks in advance.

Dr. LoMonaco, who was my surgeon and one of the best in the country, routinely does breasts and tummy together. He posted recently about it HERE.

He did my lbl/bl at the same time and my results are phenomenal. The recovery due to the lbl was tough, but the breast lift was the easy part. If I had to do it over again, I would still choose to have them both done at the same time.

Good luck!!

I am glad I had mine done at the same time, including my arms.

I second Laura in Texas's post.  I had a lower body lift and breasts done.  I have felt zero pain with my breasts, since the muscle tightening in my stomach was the big pain!  I can't imagine doing arms at the same time, just for being able to sit up, but plenty of people do it.  I wanted to have it done together to take less time away from the gym :)
