Multiple
Procedures
With the
advances made in technology, anesthesia,
outpatient surgery, and with better understanding
of human physiology in response to surgery,
it is now possible to perform two or even
three operations in the same sitting on
one patient, and discharge them home after
adequate recovery from anesthesia, which
is usually quite rapid.
Amongst
the procedures that are most commonly done
simultaneously are the following:
- Tummy
tuck and breast reduction
- Tummy
tuck and breast lift or augmentation
- Nasal
surgery and chin implant
- Face
lift and eyelid improvement
Combining
these procedures has several benefits, especially
since the patient has to undergo anesthesia
once, and will recover only once for several
procedures.Therefore these combined procedures
are quite gratifying with rewarding outcome
for both the patient and the surgeon.
It
is only with the availability of modern
day Outpatient Surgery Facilities such as
those that Dr. Abrams operates out of, and
modern techniques in anesthesia, that these
extensive procedures are possible.
