In the realm of plastic surgeries, combined surgeries have grown significantly and attract the attention of patients who want to correct more than one imperfection at the same time.

One example is post-obesity surgery, which, depending on the sagging and situation, can be combined with liposuction, for example, but the combinations don't stop there.

Many people who undergo liposuction also opt for abdominoplasty, and since both surgeries are performed on the abdomen to reduce localized fat, the combination enhances the results.

Others insist on combining liposuction with mammoplasty, for example, and there are still those who undergo rhinoplasty with blepharoplasty, and so on.

How to know if you are a good candidate?

The combination of surgeries is a resource that undoubtedly saves patients time and effort. However, it is important to remember that everything must go through medical evaluation, considering factors such as recovery time and the patient's physical health conditions.

It is important to remember that simply wanting without a real need is not a sufficient reason to undergo more than one surgery. In cases where the patient suffers from diseases such as high blood pressure, anemia, and diabetes, for example, combined surgeries are not a good option.

Before and after the surgery

In addition to the medical evaluation, the care with routine tests, fasting, and absence of smoking also applies to combined surgeries. In the case of postoperative care, the need varies depending on the type of surgery.

In general, sun exposure, hygiene, and rest are things that help and interfere with the patient's recovery.
