Dr. Robert Whitfield explains three ways to handle facial rejuvenation with breast surgery: do it separately in the office, combine one carefully chosen procedure during the same operation, or wait until after recovery. He warns that being under anesthesia doesn't justify adding procedures and lists what must be evaluated first: anatomy, skin type, operation length, positioning, treatment area overlap, healing goals, and informed consent.

Patients planning explant or breast procedures sometimes ask whether facial rejuvenation can be coordinated as well. The answer may be an office treatment, a carefully selected treatment during an appropriate operation, or later treatment after recovery. Being under anesthesia is not by itself a reason to add anything. Anatomy, skin type, procedure length, positioning, treatment overlap, healing goals, and informed consent all matter.
