“Scheduled with Campos 8/16/12 Mommy...”
Hi all! Guess I'll begin with the why-I've decided to do something for myself after four hard pregnancies. I only have two living children, but my pregnancies have been awful! The first pregnancy ended in miscarriage, my second resulted in delivering at 32 weeks, a 4ib little princess. I had preeclampsia with her, and gained weight due to fluid. Before my daughter, I was a size 0. I... more
“It's the Day Before Surgery and I'm...”
Well...I'm at work right now and can't think of anything else but my Mommy makeover scheduled for tomorrow morning at 7:30am. I have already had a breast augmentation (2006) and mini tummy tuck (2010). I really needed a breast lift in 06 but didn't want to pay the extra money so just went with saline implants. Now I am a DD and do not like being this big at all. So I am having... more
“Mommy Makeover - The Woodlands, TX”
After 3 children, 50-80lbs of weight gain per child, I was in desperate need of a "Mommy Makeover." The experience has changed my life.

“Tummy Tuck and Breast Reduction - Texas”
I have had three 9lbs babies, and gained a ton of weight with each pregnancy. I have been working hard to lose the weight. After losing 60lbs from my last pregnancy, I have been left with a saggy and fatty looking belly and hips, and sagging boobs with excess skin I can pinch and make it stay in place. Its hard to find clothes that fit me, especially only being 5'2, that I know when I can... more
Mommy of two, two csections, breastfed each kid for 10 months. I am mainly doing it because my boobs look so sad, and since I am doing that I might as well fix the rest a bit.

“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

My "mommy makeover" was done in order to remove hanging skin after twins and repair ab muscles that happened in my first pregnancy (I have 4 children - two teenagers and 3 year old twins). I added breast augmentation to my tummy tuck sort of on a whim. It wasn't something that I had considered seriously for a long time, just thought about here and there but I am so glad that I... more

“Excellent Experience, from the...”
I had 2 children by C-section and could not get my body back. My (OB) created a disaster after my C-sections. The lower quadrant of my stomach was about an inch off from the left and right side.

“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. We started our family when I was 18 and although it was a struggle we are one few who make it and really enjoy each other. I'm 5'0, 120lbs, hispanic, and just turned 30 (I like to say 20 - 10).

I had a tt, lipo of trunk stomach, flanks and implants. I'm 47 and have gotten up to 193 pounds. I work too much, exercise too little and don't eat so well. My metabolism is shot. I've lost weight before, but still left with a belly and a deflated chest. Ugh. I don't mind being a size 14, but was exhausted by trying to camouflage a massive gut and droopy breasts. People were... more

“Great Mommy Makeover - Houston, TX”
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
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
