    How to Plan for Your Mommy Makeover

    How to Plan for Your Mommy Makeover, Beverly Hills Plastic SurgeryA Mommy Makeover is a powerful combination of procedures that helps restore a woman’s pre-pregnancy body. Commonly including a tummy tuck, breast augmentation or lift, and liposuction, this transformation requires thoughtful planning for the best outcome and smooth recovery. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. David Kim performs mommy makeover for patients in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, CA, and surrounding locations.

    When Is the Right Time?

    Ideal timing depends on:

    – Being at a stable, healthy weight
    – Finishing breastfeeding for at least 6 months
    – Being done having children (future pregnancies may reverse results)
    – Having help available for 1–2 weeks post-op

    Most women schedule their Mommy Makeover at least a year after childbirth.

    Setting Realistic Expectations

    While results can be dramatic, it’s important to understand:

    – This is not a substitute for weight loss
    – Scars are inevitable, but fade over time
    – Recovery takes time and patience

    Discuss your goals with your surgeon to design a personalized plan.

    What Procedures Are Included?

    Each Mommy Makeover is customized but may include:

    Tummy tuck to remove loose skin and tighten muscles
    – Breast lift or augmentation to restore volume and shape
    – Liposuction for contouring thighs, hips, or flanks

    Some women also opt for labiaplasty or stretch mark treatment.

    Preparing for Surgery and Recovery

    – Arrange 1–2 weeks off work and childcare
    – Fill prescriptions in advance
    – Prepare meals and your recovery area
    – Avoid heavy lifting for 4–6 weeks

    Follow all pre- and post-op instructions carefully to ensure optimal healing.

    Final Thoughts

    A Mommy Makeover is a deeply rewarding procedure that addresses the physical toll of pregnancy and childbirth. With the right timing and support, it can help you feel like yourself again — or better.
