What would you like to ask a plastic surgeon about body contouring after bariatric surgery?

How much is too much at one time. I you have flabby belly and extra facial skin and bat wings I assume its to much at one time. Is there a criteria they use or just based on the patient. Does that make sense.

This is actually what I'm curious about as well. I',m only 7 months out but my plan is by this time next year to start the process and I imagine I'm going to want to get my boobs (lifted, no implants), thighs, arms and belly. I've read about people several different things at once but I'd like to know as well is there a limit as to how many procedures can SAFELY and realistically be done at once.

For my surgeon it wasn't necessarily a number of procedures but what would work best together. Like he didn't want to do a thigh lift with my tt because of the way the scars would meet and put tension on each other. He said it would be better to add on to my breast lift/reduction if I decide I need it (he did the lipo on my thighs with the tt, and see how the skin reacts).
