Combination Breast & Body Contouring
What is a Combination Breast & Body Contouring?
A combination of breast and abdominal procedures can involve multiple surgeries performed together. This may include a tummy tuck, breast lift, and breast augmentation (with implants or fat grafting).
These procedures can address changes in breast tissue and skin, which may involve removing excess skin, repositioning the nipples, and adding volume through implants or fat grafting.
In the abdominal area, this may include removing excess skin, repositioning the belly button, and tightening the abdominal muscles with sutures if needed.
