Before you move forward with your mommy makeover, there are a few important things to know.

Your Family Should Be Complete

One of the most important factors to consider is whether or not you’re finished having children. A mommy makeover is best for women who have completed their families. 

It’s not that you physically won’t be able to have more children after the procedure, but future pregnancies will likely undo your transformative results. If you don’t want to have more corrective surgeries down the road, it’s best to wait until you are done.  

Set Realistic Expectations

A mommy makeover can do wonders for restoring your shape, but it’s important to have realistic expectations. This combination of procedures – often including breast enhancement, tummy tuck, and liposuction – will make a significant difference in your shape, but won’t completely turn back the clock. Try to maintain a healthy lifestyle post-surgery for the best chance of long-lasting results.

Prepare for Recovery

Recovery after a mommy makeover takes time, and you’ll need some help along the way. For the first one to two weeks, you’ll likely need assistance with daily activities as your body heals. This may include needing extra help with childcare. 

While the recovery process varies for everyone, you should plan to rest and follow post-surgical care instructions to ensure the best possible outcome.

Know What the Surgery Involves

It’s convenient to get multiple procedures done at once, but it also requires mental and physical preparation. 

Before surgery, you’ll need to stop smoking and avoid certain medications. You’ll also want to have a support system in place, as the recovery process can be emotionally taxing. 

Dr. Kirk will walk you through every step of the process to help you feel comfortable and ready for what’s to come.
