Tummy Tuck

Q:

Can you have a tummy tuck and hysterectomy performed at the same time?

A:

With the cooperation of your gynecologist, an abdominoplasty can be performed at the same time as hysterectomy.  There is the obvious saving of an anesthesia and recovery period but the costs may not be shared.  The procedure must be planned well in advance with each surgeon understanding his area of responsibility.
