Many women can successfully breastfeed after a breast augmentation, lift, or reduction, especially if the procedure preserves the milk ducts and nerves. During your consultation, discuss your breastfeeding goals with your surgeon to choose the most appropriate surgical technique.

Yes, a Mommy Makeover is highly customizable and can be tailored to meet your specific needs. If you don’t require a tummy tuck, you can opt for other procedures such as breast augmentation, breast lift, liposuction, or a Brazilian Butt Lift. The goal is to address your unique concerns and help you achieve your desired results.

The recovery period varies depending on the specific procedures performed. Generally, most patients take about two to three weeks off from work and regular activities.

The Mommy Makeover procedure is performed under general anesthesia. The specific steps will depend on the surgeries included in your makeover.

You will be monitored closely throughout the surgery and during your initial recovery.

The results of a Mommy Makeover can be long-lasting, especially if you maintain a healthy lifestyle. The fat cells removed during liposuction and the skin and muscle tightening from a tummy tuck are permanent. However, significant weight fluctuations or future pregnancies can affect your results. Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle is crucial for preserving your new look.

A Mommy Makeover can help reduce the appearance of stretch marks, particularly those on the lower abdomen. A tummy tuck removes the skin below the belly button, where stretch marks often occur. However, stretch marks outside the area of excision may not be affected. Other treatments, such as laser therapy, can be considered for additional stretch mark reduction.

It is recommended to wait at least six months to a year after childbirth before undergoing a Mommy Makeover. This allows your body to heal and stabilize in weight and shape.
