It is very common for patients to be considering more than one plastic surgery procedure. These can be on related areas, for example a facelift combined with upper and lower blepharoplasty and a browlift, or on unrelated areas such as a breast lift and facelift. There are advantages to combining surgeries such as a single recovery period and the convenience of one surgery, and there can also be a financial advantage to combining anesthesia and operating room time. It is important for patients considering more than one procedure to discuss the safety of doing this with their surgeon. If the procedures you are considering combining would keep you in the operating room longer than 6 or so hours, your surgeon may recommend staying overnight to ensure you are comfortable, well hydrated, and monitored by a nurse for the first hours of your recovery.
