Tricky: On your back with your head elevated for your breasts, on your stomach for your buttocks. That is why i rarely combine the two procedures.

Difficult Situation…: May be challenging to find a comfortable/safe sleeping position after this combination of surgery. Discuss the safety of proceeding with your plastic surgeon.

On back with pillows: As you have had both surgeries, it makes it a tough rehab for you but my advice in this situation would be to lie on your back & buy a set of soft pillows that you can place above and below your bottom to help keep the bottom lifted slightly so as to allow you to have decreased pressure pain.Take your anti-inflammatory, pain meds & a muscle relaxants as buttocks stay sore longer than the breasts.

Side to side: I don't recommend this combination or tummy tucks (witch hazel) and buttock augmentation at the same time but when this is the best option for the patient, i will advise that they position side to side and transfer via all fours.
