How safe is it to combine different plastic surgery procedures? Am I not at higher risk if given anesthesia for long?
It makes more sense if you are travelling abroad for cosmetic surgery to combine procedures because he / she saves a lot of money and gets maximum transformation or best results in one go. That is the reason, more than 90% of our clients choose to get multiple procedures in one go. It is normally the cosmetic surgeon who determines how many surgeries you can have at one time based on your age, what procedures and how many of them you wish to combine, health and medical history. Only after he is sure that it is safe for you to undergo multiple procedures without compromising your health or outcomes, he advises to do the same.
Normally it is safer and healthier to have a longer surgery than 2 separate surgeries, as you will only have to go under GA once. The hospitals have the best infrastructure and have cutting edge technology and thus provide safe environment for multiple procedures. You can be rest assured that you are in safe hands and no unnecessary risks are ever taken .
