5 Things to Know About Your Mommy Makeover
It Can Include Multiple Procedures
A Mommy Makeover covers multiple areas of the body, and at your first appointment with one of our plastic surgeons they’ll go over your expectations for the procedure. Liposuction in different areas, including the stomach, hips, arms, and legs, is the most common component, and clients often opt for a tummy tuck, butt lift, or breast augmentation with it. We specialize in customizable plastic surgery packages designed to give you the perfect combination of procedures to restore your pre-baby body and your confidence with it.
Pre-Surgery Prep
Before scheduling your Mommy Makeover, your plastic surgeon will go over your medical history to ensure you’re free of major risk factors. This package is best for non-smokers because smoking inhibits the natural healing process and can prolong recovery from surgery. You should be at least six months post-birth before scheduling your surgery to give your body sufficient time to heal and should be in overall good health.
Before your surgery, your surgeon will advise you on how to prep. This will include getting a good night’s sleep, keeping the targeted areas clean, and arranging your post-surgery care. A full medical history will also be taken to rule out risk factors like allergies.
Surgery Day
The Mommy Makeover is an outpatient surgical procedure performed at our offices under general anesthesia, although some less extensive procedures can be done under IV sedation. The length of the procedure will vary based on the number of elements, with liposuction being the shortest. After your surgery, have someone available to drive you home for recovery, or arrange for a recovery suite at our attached medical spa.
Recovery – Easier Than Ever
Our plastic surgery procedures are designed to be minimally invasive to cut down on recovery time, and you should be free to resume all normal activities in between one and two weeks. Your surgeon will advise you on recovery time depending on specific procedures but avoid heavy lifting until cleared by your doctor and driving until all pain medications are stopped.
Lifting a baby over ten pounds isn’t advised immediately after the procedure, which is why this is usually scheduled around six months after giving birth.
Post-Surgery Care and Maintenance
If you have a more extensive procedure planned, it’s common to split the plan over two or more surgeries to minimize recovery time and let you get back to normal activities between surgeries. Your surgeon will advise you on how long to wait between procedures. The best way to get the most out of your treatment plan is to balance the surgeries with gym time and a balanced diet to maintain your new shape.
Your One-Stop Solution to Get Back Your Pre-Baby Body
A combination of common plastic surgery procedures performed by a board-certified cosmetic surgeon in our comfortable and stylish surgical suites, the Mommy Makeover is designed to restore a new mother’s pre-baby body and make it easier to get back in shape when your time in the gym is limited.

People Can't Believe I'm 75!
by Joanne Wilburn
Category: reviewsI'm 75 years old, and recently upon visiting various doctors, I've had three of them either walk past me staring or even walk past the examination room, not recognizing their 75 year old patient. I've even had one nurse tell me the doctor thought he had the wrong person in the examination room because my skin looked so young! People actually come up to me and ask to touch my face. I love it!
Professional and caring, skilled healthcare team!
by Stacey Longtin-Horton
Category: reviewsIn late October I had a work-related injury that resulted in a partial amputation of my left thumb. Because my bone was exposed, reconstructive surgery was needed in order to minimize infection and to save what I had left of my thumb. Dr. Kevin Myers determined that a Moberg advancement flap was the best option to maintain full range of motion and the most thumb length possible. My overall experience here was absolutely amazing! The entire staff was very accommodating and kind and worked in a very professional matter. They were always there to answer questions when I had them. My surgery went very well, and recovery was easy. A little over two months later, I now have a fully functioning thumb with full feeling and full range of motion! I am totally impressed with the work that the healthcare staff did! Although I hope to never need any reconstructive surgery again, I would not hesitate coming back here if I needed to for any issue. 100% would recommend to friends or family.
