Houston Mommy Makeover Doctors and Reviews

“MM with Breast Aug, Modified Tummy...”

32 year old mom of twin girls and big brother. Prior to surgery i was short waisted, apple shaped, long legs, slightly overweight and gain weight in my back, stomach, and boobs. I've thought about having a BA for years, however I didn't want to look like a big apple with the rest of my disproportionate body. When I lose weight it always comes from my boobs and butt, which looks even worse.... more

“Hot Mommy Again :) - Houston, TX”

I am 33 years old and have 2 children. I have always been athletic, but 2 kiddos left me with small, sagging breasts and excess skin and fat around the tummy and love handles. Everything went well- I had quite a bit of pain in the first few days, but it was nothing compared to childbirth! I am recovering well- I have recently started to exercise again and my scars are fading. My husband is... more

“Part 2: Ultimate Breast Lift and...”

You can read Part 1 of my journey here. Updated on 2 Nov 2012: Yesterday, I was able to go straight from ultrasound to biopsy. To save time. Which is fantastic. However, biopsy results at Kaiser usually take 3-5 business days. Baaaaaaad! But first, for those of you who, like me before yesterday, have never had a biopsy, I thought I'd explain. Because I was TERRIFIED. It was... more

“Abdominal Plasty and Breast Lift -...”

The surgical procedures is extremely unsatisfactory. The abdominal was not performed correctly. I get depressed when I think of her and the my procedure. No motivation at all. Goal to get it redone by someone who knows how. I will never recommend her. I am having to get someone else to redo. Left my breast horribly scared. And did not perform according to request. It's embarrasing to show my... more

“Part 1: Mommy Makeover Preparations...”

I am still struggling with the decision...right now I'm scheduled to get a mini-tt, breast augmentation...and lift only my lower nipple, lipo on mid abdomen and flanks as well as thighs.

Has anybody had experience with mini tt?My pre-op appointment is tomorrow with dr.... more

My journey actually started in 2005. I have 3 beautiful kids who are 21, 18 and 13. When I got pregnant with my oldest, I gained about 100 pounds! And did not lose the weight and just kept gaining. Finally in 2005 I had it! So I had lapband. I loved my band! I lost about 80 pounds. Then in July 2011 I slipped my band. So I had the gastric sleeve revision. Anyway I am happy with my current... more

“8 months post op and had scar...”

I'm 5'0" and very petite at 105lbs. If you saw me on the street, you'd think I was crazy to get a TT but after 3 kids and 2 of them over 9 lbs, my skin has stretched out. It bothers me. My boobs used to be nice, not big but perky. After bf'ing all my kids, they are deflated but not horrible. But dh is so supportive and told me to go ahead and do both since I am going under. I am fit and work... more

“Thanks Rejuvenus - Houston, TX”

I always wanted bigger breasts, and I wasn't happy with my appearance. I'm very happy with the surgery, and am enjoying the "new me."  I was told the swelling would last 6-8 weeks but that it could be longer for some people.  For me it has been 9 months of swelling in the abdomen.  I actually had breast implants, tummy tuck, inner thighs, and liposuction... more

“Mommy Makeover - Houston, TX”

I am done having kids and wanted to get my confidence back. Make sure u look at before and after pics. Dr. B did not deliver what I expected on my mommy makeover.

“Recovered Fatty - Pearland, TX”

I lost 60lbs in 1998. I've gained back 15 of it, on purpose. ( I really got too skinny) In 2005 I had lipo because I just couldn't stop my inner thighs from rubbing together no matter how much I lost. I needed the tummy tuck back then but hadn't had children yet so couldn't do it yet. The plan was always to come back for the TT after pregnancy. Now, my skin just hangs and sags... more

I have the same reasons many do here... 2 children both born over 9 lbs each. I am 5'3 and this was a huge strain on me.

So to reward myself when i lose the... more

“30 and Ready to Be Me Again!”

I have 3 beautiful boys (12, 9, and 3). Decided that a girl isn't in the cards for me, so my husband and I decided we are done having kids.

My pregnancy belly was pretty large and my muscles would not work correctly (even after many situps). I wanted to correct my muscle wall and get rid of extra fat. I also breastfed for 15 months so that took a toll on my already small breasts. I was interested in a lift, but given the size, we decided on an implant as well. more

“Great Doctor - Houston, TX”

I was very unhappy with my stomach after having a c-section. I tried liposuction when I was younger, but it really didn't help the loose skin. My gyn recommended that I have a hysterectomy so decided that I might as well do the tummy tuck at the same time, since I had been tossing this around for a while, but just didn't want to have surgery. I had a breast lift and replaced my old... more
