When you choose to have a cosmetic procedure performed your surgeon might suggest combining cosmetic procedures. Although this might seem like a daunting prospect it is a common practice in cosmetic surgery, as this has numerous benefits associated with it. Some surgeries often deliver more favourable results for patients when they are combined, making the effects of the surgery more noticeable. Having a combination of surgeries performed on the same day also means that your overall recovery time is much less than if the surgeries were to be performed separately.
Here are some common combinations that suitable candidates can benefit from:
Tummy Tuck and Liposuction
One of the most popular combinations is tummy tuck surgery with liposuction because of the striking results it has delivered in the past. This is the perfect combination for those who seek to accentuate their waistline. Firstly, liposuction gets rid of any unwanted fat clusters in the abdominal area, after which any loose skin in the area is removed with a tummy tuck. This results in a slimmer and more toned waistline, something that would be difficult to achieve with only one of these procedures.
Rhinoplasty and Chin Augmentation
Rhinoplasty is a procedure that is intended to augment the shape of the nose, leaving it more refined as a result. A chin augmentation seeks to enhance the structure and shape of the chin, according to the patient’s wishes. These procedures are performed in close proximity to one another and by combining the procedures you can often achieve a more balanced facial profile. The recovery period for these procedures is also quite similar, making it an ideal combination.
Breast Augmentation and Breast Lift
This is often the first pair that comes to mind when talking about combining cosmetic procedures. Breast augmentation makes use of an implant to increase the size and improve the form of the breast, while a breast lift is more focused on the positioning of the breast. A breast lift is especially effective at positioning the nipple in the right place after a breast augmentation was performed. This combination is an ideal option for women who want their breasts to look more youthful.
